MIA

Sorry, I've been missing a couple days. :) I got home late two nights ago when I had anticipated writing my blog for that day. But the good news was I found a new (to me elliptical) from Craigslist and brought it home! I had my cousin-in-law lend me the use of his truck, but he ended up driving and helping me load/unload the machine and carry it up to my house. I LOVE the new machine! It's only been used a couple times and is pretty much brand new. It sells for $999 new, and I bought it for $200! Steal of a deal! :) I love it so far.

Yesterday was kind of a boring day, and I basically just worked out on the new machine, took Burk for a walk, ran, and did laundry. I did run some errands in town, but other than that I didn't have much on the agenda.

Today I went to my local farmer's market; however when I got there, it was mostly picked over. I still bought some produce, and had it for dinner tonight. I got sweet corn, potatoes, blueberries, and tomatoes. Tomorrow I'm going to go to another local produce stand in town and get some more fruits and vegetables so I have some good stuff for this weekend. My parents and sister are visiting and we're celebrating my dad's birthday. He loves taking a boat tour of a nearby lake, so we'll do that on Saturday, and probably go out to eat.

My running has gone well this week; it's been a pretty easy mileage week so far. Sunday was Insanity, Monday was a rest day, Tuesday was 3 miles, Wednesday was 4 miles, today was 3 miles, tomorrow is a rest day, and Saturday is the kicker - 9 mile long run. I haven't ran that far since I did my half on the treadmill, and I have to make sure I get it done early in the morning that day since my family is coming.

Burkie and I took a walk somewhat late tonight after dinner. He was so excited to go that it's hard to not take him every day! :) He loves being outside and seeing things around the neighborhood, and I love getting to exercise peacefully and listening to my podcasts on my ipod. Recently I've been listening to a lot of Adam Carolla's and Dr. Drew Pinsky's podcasts (separate ones and ones of them together).
