Todays workout is a little later than normal. It’s saturday and we spent a semi lazy morning hanging out with the kids and making breakfast. We are fortunite to have respite care mid afternoon to early evening today – So this is our gym time for today.
Today I am taking it easy. I have a 5km race tomorrow morning at 11:30 for the Edmonton Marathon. I am super duper excited.
I wouldnt say that I am a runner. I run for my workouts… usually 2-3km… sometimes… and I do these races… so I am a runner for bling! if the race has a medal, or a tshirt… or a jacket… Im there! I love getting stuff for doing something. I feel that it makes me more motivated. Afterall, what would you rather do… run 5km and be rewarded with a Taco ( true story! I did a taco run once!) or would you rather just run.. then be done and thats it? The taco is more enticing and motivating!
Today’s workout conisted of weights, leg lifts, plank… etc. Basically the same as yesterday except no shoulders or triceps. I did run 1 km and walk 1. I was so excited that today the track was the other direction. I usually only catch one direction and it was starting to get irritating.
That’s all for now.

I literally just finished registering for the Valley Harvest Marathon here in Nova Scotia – solely for the bling. I really didn’t want to run it this year. The first year I did it, I did it for the accomplishment. This year it’s all about what I’m getting in return. You and I are on the same page. :p

That awesome and good luck. Bling and loot is definitely
Where it’s at. You should register for the resolution run! It’s a jacket!!! You need it! Lol. We did the 20 minute challenge for running room this July and got hats. It was free. Which is better… but the hats are actually pretty awesome. I wore mine today for the race. ☺️

All over Canada! My husband and I are doing the Edmonton one as we live here. But there is a city close to almost everyone. 🙂
