So, here's one of my recent photos with my oldest daughter eating yummy pancakes for breakfast! Then, I found an awesome picture (courtesy of Kendra) from 1994 (I think). From 1991-1995 I was on the Gonzaga University rowing team; those years were the best shape I've ever been in, and the workouts were extremely sick, a love/hate relationship! But it paid off because our 'Rowing JV8 team' took 3rd at the Pacific Coast Rowing Championships on Lake Natoma in Sacramento, CA. The bonus was that if we beat out the Varsity team, we would have the honor to row the "Dirigo," one of the most streamlined and awesome fiber glass eights, to row in the finals! What a great event, unforgettable!
The rowing picture not only reminds me of the great times I've had with my friends at GU, but also that fitness has great rewards!Today I ran a total of 3.29 miles and walked some parts of it. The average mile was 12'18" for my run. And the walking part was 13'40"/mile. That tells me I need to open my stride more when running. Also, I'm building my pace again to where I can run without walking. After today's training, I felt more energized and was ready to train again at Taekwondo.
I know this is only the second day, but I'm looking forward to my next run tomorrow!
