Back on the Track and Ab Work Too!

Today was pretty productive and I am very pleased with all that I was able to accomplish! I did the usual cleaning, laundry, shopping and even got a great workout!

I went to my health club and worked my abs on one of those big red balls behind me. God I love those balls, I have to get one. I have been feeling a little guilty because sadly, I have been fluffing it way to long. My abs and core need a real good workout. This week I have one Velocity Sports session. My daughter has two nights of basketball practice and two evenings of training sessions. Unfortunately, babysitters are hard to get on weekday evenings. This afternoon I worked my abs and then attempted to do another pathetic attempt to do push-ups. I can now do eight and not look like a complete dork! After my ab work and push-ups I ran around the track. It was my plan to run for one hour and not program my garmin for distance or pacing. I just turned on my stop watch and ran. I didn't want to keep looking at the distance or worry about keeping a certain pace. I just wanted to run comfortably and work on my form and breathing. I ran for fifty minutes and did a ten minute cool down walk. After that I went into one of the empty Yoga rooms and stretched out really good. I honestly felt awesome today, it was a great workout.

I just want to take a moment to thank everyone for their thoughts, words of wisdom and opinions regarding our potential move in the future! I really appreciate it and I mean that truly from the bottom of my heart. My husband and I have talked about it and have come to a short term conclusion. We knew that we would not be able to move until after our daughter finished this year's school spring term. Our college son really wants to stay in the state, so if we move he will not come with us. My husband will interview for the opportunity in Madison and we will just see what there is to offer. The opportunities on the east coast will always be there. There are many jobs for that type of work. In order for us to move out east the offer would have to be fantastic. My husband's father is much older and it would be hard to tell him that we were going to take his only grandchildren and move across the country. I know that what is meant to be will be. I can't be afraid of change because change has triggered some of the best things to ever happen in my life:)
