Get in shape, Girl!

Remember the "Get in Shape Girl" stuff? My breast friend Kate had it. I, on the other hand, had my dad's 5 lb dumbells and an old bandanna that had probably served as a hanky on more than one hunting trip.

I credit "Get in Shape Girl" with Kate's athleticism and my lack thereof with my affinity for sitting on my ass and eating pub mix.

Anyway, I'm turning 30 in Feb. Dirty Thirty.

I've decided to mark the occasion the way millions before me have. By doing a run of sorts.

Now, I don't know what I'll do. Whether it's a 10k or a half marathon... I'm not committing to anything at this point. ;)

I've been on the treadmill Sun, Mon, Tues & Thurs this week. I've gone 45 minutes each time and yesterday I ran/walked 3.5 miles. It's my goal to go 4 miles in 45 minutes and then bump up my time.

I don't know if this is proper training for anything really, but I'm doing it, baby!

Oooh and yesterday, I swear I was running next to a pro athlete of sorts. To quote Mike King, "Is this because he was a big buff black guy?"

Yup!

It wasn't Michael Jordan but nobody can prove it WASN'T Donovan McNabb. Or Bo Jackson.

Speaking of athleticism, Logan is a rocker and a roller when he plays his Wii. It is a riot to watch him! And I don't even mind anymore that he plays it. I used to be sooo against any kind of video games but now that it's so freaking hot and there are scorps all over the back yard, apparently, I guess it's OK once in a while. ;)
