January - 76 miles!

In January, I did 76 miles between running and walking. I am happy with that :)

Last night, my husband lanced one of my blisters. The fluid was puss colored. Good times. He didn't want me to run/walk today, but I had plans with Hilary to do some miles.

I took a chance and put on my new shoes to see if it felt better on my blisters. It did feel better since the shoe wasn't so stretched out. My feet didn't slide around as much. However, we ended up doing 6 miles today! It was mostly walking with a few runs thrown in. 6 miles in brand new shoes will make most people's feet ache. It's not too bad though. The 6 miles were worth it!!!

Oh......we got the best news today! In 9 months, we are moving to Wichita Falls, TX!!!! My husband was there for school about 5 years ago and is going back as an instructor. Instructor is a great career choice. Also, it is the closest we can get to Colorado!!!!!!!! It's only a 10-11 hour drive home :) I am so excited! I truly feel we deserve it after living here for 3 years. Woohooo!!!!

Monday here is Superbowl Monday. (Think time difference) Every year, my neighbor starts grilling at 6am, as the game is on in the morning. LOL Everyone comes over, has some food, and drinks. Good times to be had by all. It may be my first non-Friday splurge on calories day. I am very nervous about that. I guess that's a good thing, though. I haven't decided what I am going to do for sure.

Also....yesterday was 1 month in. I am guessing I have lost at least 15lbs. I am still avoiding the scale, though, as tempting as it is!!!

Thursday - 1mi walk w/ kids and dog
Friday - 6 miles walk/run with Hilary
1mi walk w/ dog

What kind of shoes?! :)

You know you're a military wife when you use the words "ONLY" and "11 hour drive" in the same sentence followed by a grin! *chuckle*

Way to go on the mileage, you're really racking it up eh?
