Woe Is Me!

With all this running, I tend to think that I am fit. This week has been a reality check. On Monday, we went hiking with the Huntsman's to Lower Palisades Lake. It was about 9 miles and was a lovely hike. Not too steep.... but come about Wednesday, I was suffering from a tight muscle in my bum. You know the one that pinches your sciatic nerve when it gets tight. I had to cut down my mileage and even walked with Ron a day because it was hurting too much. But, Tel got me lined out with a deep stretch that did the trick to loosen that up.

Then yesterday I spent the day planting the garden, digging in the flowers, etc. for about 12 hours. Lots of bending and squats. Oh my, I was stiff this morning. Today I was grateful for being able to sit and not have to get up too often.

Moral of the story.... I guess I'm not as fit as I think.

Somebody share some running/walking stories with me. I'd love to hear how you are coming on your pursuits...whatever they are. 1 mile or 1000!

The Master of A's


Here she is....the Master of A's. Lisa has graduated from UNLV with a Master of Social Work. She got all A's this semester. She is such a hard worker.
We're so proud of her.

Here she is with some of her friends that were in her program.









Even though it's been 3 weeks since I posted, running is going great. I'm loving the warmer weather, light earlier in the morning and later at night. Hope you are all taking advantage of the change of weather.
