After a month of absolutely no exercise and of a lot of emotional turmoil, I ran the lake again. It felt routine which is good, but I could not really enjoy it like I usually do. But I was very happy with my time and I’m sooo incredibly relieved that I didn’t lose the endurance I gained. And I ran my fastest mile yet. I hope running will boost my self-esteem again.
2.82miles @ 33’43”

I love orchids and have plenty of fake ones. I was very determined to buy a real one today. I went to the greenhouse and found gorgeous orchids for $40. They’re not too expensive…but I don’t have the best track record with plants. So I bought a $5 plant and made a goal: -If I keep it alive for a month, I’ll buy a real orchid.

I’ve been flirting with the idea of possibly joining the US Marine Corps. I’m not in terrible shape, but by their standards…I might as well be a 300lb couch potato.
My goals (perfect PT scores) are as follows:
3mile run in 21min (yikes)
100 crunches in 2 min
Flexed arm hang for 70 seconds (ouch)
