Goals for 2008

Ok... So I'm a little late... It's not quite March yet. :) I was thinking, I'd like to hear what other people's goals are for the year. Maybe that way we can support each other. Check in, and say how we did for the week or if we are getting to our goals. Ya know? So here are mine...

March 15th- 5K Run @ Columbia Park

May- Old Inland Empire Bike Ride, Its 100 mile, one day ride up the canyon here. Did you even know we had a canyon here? Its supposed to be one of the top 10 rides in the country, or something like that. Anyway, I've never done it!

June 28th- Mini Tri-Athalon, my first one. Its in Auburn, WA.

July 16th- Seattle to Portland Bike Ride. Its 200 miles, you can do one day or two. I've already done the first 100 miles a couple of years ago. I was 4 1/2 months pregnant so I didn't try to do the whole thing. But I'd like to do the whole thing this year.

Labor Day Weekend- Tri Athalon, here at Columbia Park, and around Tri Cities.

How about you guys! What do you want to do this year!

Words to Live by!

So What are your favorite quotes, or words you live by?

5K...Part 2...

Ok... Tell me your top 10 workout songs. I am making a new playlist to motivate me to jog further then ever before! What do ya got???

Vinyl Letters

Hey by the way, I got a vinyl letter machine cutter for Christmas! If anyone wants some super cute vinyl signs made, I can do it for you!

Globetrotters!

It sounds more exciting than it is, like we have been trotting around the world. Unfortunatly, that is not the case. Jacob and I took the kids to see the Harlem Globetrotters tonight. They were pretty entertaining. I have always wanted to see them. Everyone enjoyed it. We've taken them to a couple of Kamiakin Basketball Games and they just love it. I keep telling them how cool it will be when they play for Kamiakin. Jacob says I shouldn't push it, they will do what they want to do.... I am all for encouraging them to do what I want them to do, all the while hoping they will think it was their idea so they actually want to do it. Ya know what I am saying? I hope they want to play sports, they've had an early start to Basketball and soccer. Hopefully they will stick with it!

HELP! 5K Run! Is it Doable?

Ok, so I am thinking about doing a 5K run... the prob is, its in just a couple of weeks.... UGH! I just started jogging again and I'm not sure if I can be ready by then. I have never done an organized run before and a 5K really isn't that far. I just get so bored jogging on the treadmill I never go further than 2 miles. So... Any ideas to not get bored or feel like I want to die while I am jogging. I wish I was better at it. I think it would be fun to be a "Runner!" Although I loved my friends post that even a slow jog should still be called a run. Or something like that. Let me know if you runners have any great ideas for me!

HMMM... ? I love to excercise. Don't get me wrong. Its hard to get out the door, but once I do I just love how I feel. I love to hot tub. I really want to do a triathalon this summer. I love cycling, especially with my husband, even though he kicks my trash! I did a 100 mile ride last year. I'm shooting for 200 miles this year, in one day! I love to sing, unfortunately I'm not so good at it. I love Volleyball and I enjoy watching sports on TV and going to games, more so than my husband even. I love hanging out with friends and being with groups of people.
