goals

i'm well past goals for new years (and i'm successful with some of my resolutions, failing miserably at others) but i thought it might be time to set some new goals.

perhaps the biggest goal i'm setting for myself is to run the jingle bell run this year. although its only a 5k, my arthritis has definitely progressed considerably from my previous runs (so much so that i didn't run last year, but went for moral support instead and really struggled the year before). this year i'm going to train (yes train...how sad is that?) for a 5k. i want to have muscles specifically toned for running, so that perhaps they can adequately support my joints for the run, so that means that i will have to slowly and carefully get back into running (something that i'm really excited about...here's hoping it works!) i will of course, still make carl push the now- dying jogging stroller with my girlies in it!

ok so maybe only one goal for today...

i'm running around like a crazy person with nacac in town and travel season in full swing. i am getting too old to be doing all this travelling, every afternoon i'm ready to crash as soon as i walk in my door. tonight is my first fair after a day of travelling....its going to be rough getting up in the am!
