BUSY

Oh man, life is so busy right now. I'm trying to get into the swing of starting culinary school, continuing with my marathon training, having company in from out of state, house sitting, and now going to get my GED.

It's been a crazy couple of weeks since all of this has been going down, but there is a light at the end of the tunnel. Well kind of. We have a friend staying with us this week and then we are house sitting next week and then it's back to semi-normal life.

I am really enjoying having people here though. I have missed familiar faces more than I realized and I love seeing James and Greg. If only more people would come out (family, ahem)

I ran a 15K on Sunday and did really well. I was proud of myself. 9.3 miles in 1:19 for an average pace of 8:30. 53rd out of 282 in my age group. I'll take it!

I'm struggling a bit with finding time to get my long runs done on the weekends. I guess I'm not making it enough of a priority. This week I have 17 miles on deck and we have all these plans to go to the coast and the gorge. Ugh. We shall see how this goes. I really want to run the Eugene Marathon May 1st and it's coming up to fast, so I need to get my focus on!

Greg is making us scallops this week, and I'm pretty excited. The only time I have ever had scallops was not a very good memory, so I have faith he will be able to change my opinion about them.

This was a random post, but it's what has been going on. I will leave you with some photos! Till next time!
