Exercise!

My goal is to do a 5k race by the end of March. My friend Val will be joining me, and that's very exciting. 

Despite being sick and a seizure this Christmas, I have been making a point of getting out and exercising. The week I was at Granny's I've gotten a bunch of wheeling done. It's not every day, but considering it was a vacation and I was sick, I am actually quite proud of myself!

Along the same vein, when I get home I will be riding at least a mile everyday in an effort to train for all the 5ks  I'll be doing in 2016. At the Begining of February, if all goes according to plan, I will move up to 2 miles. I should be doing 3 miles by March. March should be my first 5k.

I'm really looking forward to getting fit again. It felt so good to be out of breath from something other than my body rebelling. 

My goal is to do a number of 5ks (or more). I have a few options, and I have yet to look into runs in the Northern Virginia area. The only problem I'm going to run into for this, is getting a ride to the runs. (J.B. Fletcher didn't need a license. Neither do I!) If you have a run you'd like to do with me, as long as it's not off-road I'm game. I have a lot of running friends.
