I made a goal yesterday and it was unanticipated. I was a solo walker again and I did the hill twice - it has sort of become my lunch "usual". I jogged down both times but yesterday I jogged all the way UP both times! It was slow and it was hard. But I did it! Yay! I was just going to jog a little further up then I did last time, but when I got there the firs time I thought "you can go just a little bit further". And I did. And I kept thinking that until I got to the top! Then I thought "for the second round I'll just go to my marker and walk up" but the same thing happened again! So I made it up both times.
I am getting so much stronger!
Then life took the opportunity to prove to me that there is balance in the universe. We went to see Pineapple Express last night (aside: So hilarious! I can't remember when I have laughed so hard. But like In Burges, another 100% fantastic movie, I cannot recommend it to any member of my family.) and had popcorn. And a lot of popcorn! Usually I don't like movie popcorn so much but I really wanted it and it was delicious. I also brought a chocolate bar I picked up at Eclipse before the movie. I rode my bike to get it, not far but still an additional 4 miles of movement.
I did not jog last night after work because doing the hill at lunch took so much energy. I could have jogged after work but I would not have enjoyed it (it would have felt like a job) and I would have paid for it today!

Wow! Maybe you could be in the next Olympics. Hill jogging. (They seem to have everything else so why not that?)
I've heard of that movie but don't know anything about it. And since you can't recommend it I probably won't see it!
Mom and I went for a walk after supper last night so that was nice. Angie wandered over here and we took advantage of her to grannysit for a half hour.
Good for you getting a walk in last night. I hear gossip you might be walking on your day off.....
