August Adventures

Another month has come and gone.  August is always one of my favorites because the kids head back to school (though I didn't like part when I was a kid) and it's my Birthday.  The start of school means the start of scouts, dance class and sports.  It's been a marathon month...in more ways than one.  Here's what I did  in August:

• Ran a total of 46 miles
• Walked over 16 miles
• Biked more than 35 miles.
• Bowled a 100 game...including a strike on my first ball.  (It went downhill after that.)
• Began to plank
• Climbed to the top of Stone Mountain...and back down without breaking an ankle.
• Ran my first 5k in several months...and got a PR
• Learned that Jillian Michaels is hard cord and insain.  I couldn't walk right for several days.
• Had a random moment of insanity and ran up over 500 stairs
• Realized planking is hard
• Enjoyed the beginning of football season
• Turned 29 for the ??th time.
• Reached my weight loss goal.
• Ran for 45 minutes with no breaks
• Ran for 60 minutes with 2 short breaks.
• Abandoned planking
• Spent Labor Day weekend in Alabama and ran there for the first time.

I'm looking forward to a great September!
