Banquet and Last Week’s Workouts

So far my posts have been written ahead and I copy / paste into my blog. This is the first time I am blogging and posting in real time. One goal of blogging for me is to recap the previous week with a highlight of the week and also to track my workouts. The highlight of the week is a way for me to recognize joy in life.

On Friday my husband and I attended our running club’s annual banquet. I am so grateful that we joined this club. Going back as far as 10 years ago we had participated in runs that were organized by this group. Three years ago we went on a cruise with them; there were 20 of us and was such fun that we became more active members.

The goal is not cruising of course, but support in running no matter how fast or slow you are or how much or little you run. There are slow runners like me - just being honest - all the way up to one woman who just qualified for the Olympic marathon trials. One man celebrated his 70th birthday the night of the banquet and the littlest runner is 3 years old. He runs with his mom and dad.

In addition to good food and conversation my husband successfully completed several of his 2018 running goals and scored some swag. I have set some running goals of my own for 2019 and will post that soon.

Last week’s workouts were: I swam 50 laps on Monday, ran 3 miles on Saturday and swam 40 laps on Sunday. This is consistent with my winter average of three workouts per week. Yesterday we headed south to warmer climes for vacation. I should hopefully get some runs in. The condo we are staying at also has a lap pool and I brought my goggles.

Thank you for reading!
