Up and Downhill...

Hi there readers!!


So it's been a long time coming but I'm finally back to the blog!!  I have so much to share!


1. (a while back) I hit the 5 mile mark with my running and I was sooo proud!  Whenever my body wanted to give up and fall into the pavement, I kept thinking, "this is for the blog! this is for the blog!!"  So I want to thank you all for your inspiration!!


2. Unfortunately, very soon after I ran my best run yet, life came and smacked me right smack in the face!  Everything got crazy, and my running and blogging were pushed aside.  :-(  But hey, it happens.  So, today I laced up my running shoes and hit the pavement, (with a cold I might add) and I finished a pretty good 2-mile run.  I hope to be back up to 5 miles by next week!


3.  In the midst of my life falling apart, I think I have absolutely found my passion!  Well, it's more of a skill that I love to use, and have yet to channel.  But my job sent me out of town to train hundreds of employees and I got to make a snazzy power point, and work on my public speaking.  I felt right at home!


Some of you might already know this about me, but I used to have a fake radio show when I was little, and I'd record my favorite music on my playskool recorder, then unexpectedly I'd interrupt with "This is a Fox 35 Update!" and give some fake late-breaking news stories.  I also did journalism all throughout high school and I was darn good at it and loved every second!  Even when I ran for office all throughout school, I really just wanted to give speeches.  I love public speaking, (and I guess a bit of attention too) so my  next step is to figure out how to get to do it more often.  So the first stop is to use my talents more at my job and with networking events around the city.  The next step... well, I haven't gotten that far, but I'm excited about the possibilities!


Despite the lengthy delay, I am back on track with stepping off my treadmill and I hope you all are doing well on your journeys!  Please feel free to share your small victories or obstacles on and off the pavement!!
