Day 2 was a little easier, I think... The weather was perfect for a run a little wind to start and about half way through, RAIN!! I don't know what is more exhilarating running, and being able to free your mind and just run or running in the rain to feel as though you are being washed clean of all the bad in this world! Either way, I highly recommend it to everyone! I think I have finally got my sister convinced to do this marathon with me, anyone is more than welcome to join us as well. The one I want to do is 224 days away, The Disney World Marathon...yes, yes, I will be running my first marathon in one of my favorite places in the world, and my sister will be there with me! Really, what more motivation does one person need right?! Okay, well it is only my second day, so I may need someone to remind me of this in like a month haha. I found my training plan on http://www.marathonrookie.com/ a big thanks to that website. I actually started out a little different this week since it has been so long since I have really ran. The real challenge will probably be next week. I will have ran 10 miles by this Sunday, then next week with the goal of running 15 miles by week end.
I have also been working on eating better, I think I mentioned that before, getting back to my college days of eating to be able to workout a lot. Last night was another new recipe (Dan was gone, but I think he was going to try it for lunch) they are Banana Corn Fritters, they don't taste anything like they sound and they are so yummy, with a side of green beans and cottage cheese, and a big glass of milk (It does my body good :) ) The rest of the night was spent cuddling with Buddie, who I have to say is in wonderful spirits, even though he still prefers to sit and watch TV than go for a walk with me, which is a little say considering that used to be his favorite thing in the world, now if you say, "let's go for a walk," he rolls on his back so you can't put his leash on him :( but I will take all the cuddles in the world, so we watched Biggest Loser then cuddled in bed.
Love from the Buchholz 3
