Getting fit

Another goal I have for the last part of this year is to get fit. I started this year with the goal of running 320 miles, and I have far to go.

I started well at the beginning of the new year, but then I got this cold and it stuck with me for months. But, I am now absolutely fine, it has just been a little hard getting my running MOJO back.

I think I might have found it.  Last weekend we had a visitor from home, my friend from University many years ago..and her daughter runs..maybe even alot. So she (my friend) was buying new running shoes for her daughter and I really fancy anew pair..but not until I can actually complete a 5 k run with a new personal best.

I guess that's the carrot I need...and of course, running shoes are expensive, so I have to save up for them.

I guess....this is one of the most recent pictures of me...April 2015. Not very happy in this picture.  I have been very unhappy with myself for a long time now. I guess this is the time to do something about it.

So far, I have run 30 miles since December..so not anywhere near my goal. AND we are halfway through the year..! No wonder why I need to get my running shoes on a bit more often. Wish me luck lovelies.

Have a great Sunday out there.

Dreams

I have many dreams for the future, but one of the is to live a live with fewer "things" . I do not want to be a modern minimalist, I just wish for less stuff.

So...I don't buy more things, unless we really need them. One example is that is our breakfast bowl breaks, we will have to replace it, so we all can hae one each. But I do NOT under any circumstances buy new candleholders or tealightholders.

I made one the other day, and I DO regret making more mess in my house.

So, from now on I will do my best to follow my beliefs, and have less.
Not sure if it will make a difference, as I haven't ever posted any pictures..but I will show a little here and there as I go along.

So, wish me luck, as I am about to start a new journey in my life. My life of nothingness and mental order.
