Today has been a great day!
We awoke at 3:30 and headed over to Fort deSoto for the Publix Family Fitness Weekend triathlon/duathlon. I participated in the triathlon as part of a relay team. Eric did the duathlon. I cycled for our relay team and rode for 10 miles which isn’t that far, but my brake got stuck and rubbed against the rim the entire 10 miles so it felt much longer. It was still great though.
After getting home and relaxing for a bit, we went to Bent’s Cycling shop in downtown Lakeland and Eric got me a new birthday bike. It is so pretty and it’s a GIANT Cypress dx. I love this bike and am very excited about riding it for many miles to come. I think I’ll call it Cypress. It’s a pretty name.
Tonight, we had more of the birthday cake that my friend Natalie brought over for me last night. It was so cool. She and her mother made me a giant cupcake. Very cool! I’m very blessed with her friendship in my life.
I’ve been thinking a lot about turning 34 and what I want my life to look like this year.
1. I want to finish losing weight which means I have about 20 more pounds to lose.
2. I want to get on a regular schedule for walking Pockets instead of doing it sporadically so she isn’t so rambunctious. Boxers require a lot of exercise!
3. I want to be walking/running, swimming, cycling and strength training every week.
4. I want to take a few minutes every evening to do a check of how I’m progressing on my goals.
5. I want to make daily goals each morning and focus on the tasks ahead.
6. I want to quit stressing about things, but know that it’s a big, unspecific goal so I am going to try to write down what I’m stressing about and write something I can do about it.
I will probably add to these as I’m always doing, but this is what’s on my mind right now.
Have a great day!
