Awkward & Awesome Thursdays!

 Brian & me geocaching a couple weekends ago!

Awkward 

 -Closing the car door on my hair....and not realizing it until I went to back up and turned my head. NW Iowa wind for ya! 

-Red, itchy allergy eyes...that made me look like I had been partying a bit too hard. I swear I hadn’t! 

-Venting about something...er someone, then having the person walk in the room....yea. I feel pretty crappy about that one. 

-People continually asking me if I’m going to church sunday.... 

-Finding TWO more ticks on my dog!! 

Awesome 

-Having yummy deep fried green peppers...and cheese balls...and steak! :P 

-Geocaching...again! 

-The Wild winning against the Blackhawks last Sunday night!! :D 

-Finding out that Summer Shandy is back on tap at the local pub. 

-Shaving 52s off of my mile! 

-That Instagram is available for Android now! :P

Health Report: Training

If you read my 27 before 28 post then you may remember that one of my items is to train for a 5k. Our local animal rescue {which I volunteer with} hosts one in April, so I’m tentatively aiming for that. It seems like an attainable goal, but competition in any form make me nervous, so I’m not sure I’ll actually do it.  I’ve always wanted to start jogging/running, so I am training for it regardless! I started last week and I thought I’d share my new workout plan with you. I’m using the 5k Your Way Rookie Running Training Program from SparkPeople.com and I just sort of tweaked it a bit to fit my schedule. 

Here's my weekly schedule.  I've stuck with it for the most part so far. I've gotten in my 3 5k training days anyway!

And here's the details on my 5k training workouts.  This is the program created by SparkPeople.com. I just created the fun graphic. :P
