Good morning!!!
No school this morning because its Memorial Day so I get to relax!!!!! and by relax i mean study like a fiend for my chem midterm on Wednesday. And I work tonight.
Take a moment:
Regardless of how you feel about the military or politics try and thank a veteran today, we would not be the free country we are without them. You wouldn’t be able to protest all the things you disagree with or burn that flag you think stands for something it doesn’t if it wasn’t for veterans (and their families) giving up so much to help us keep these rights. Because yes, in this country it is a right you have to protest what you do not like or believe in and it is because these men and women have given their blood, sweat, tears and sometimes so much more for us to have this right, not this privilege. Remember that today if no other day.

Workout goal- 4 workouts
Last week I got 4 workouts in. One of them was up in the trees and absolutely terrifying.
Last week I did 7.6 miles mixed between walking and running. I am increasing my mileage slowly but surely. I’m hoping I will be able to find a half marathon in October or November that will fit into my work schedule (I currently work Saturday and Sunday mornings which is when most races take place).
Here’s to a great week!!!!
Happy Mother’s Day!!!
I wanted to do a quick shout-out to the best mom any woman could ask for. My mom loves her kids unconditionally……..and believe me we have given her many conditions to test her hahahaha.
My mom is thoughtful, loving, caring, giving and just amazing. She has been there for me through everything; angry teenage years, drunken-grief struck college years, has helped me be able to travel some, has tried to impart some wisdom without shoving it down my throat, she has let me learn my lessons and helped me dig out of them once I have learned it. Because of my mother I am on the road to becoming a doctor and am so proud of who I am and it is all because of her.
I love you mom!!!!
And lets not forget that time my mom walked off into the wilderness with me for another crazy adventure……

Book Review**Arctic Drift

I enjoy pretty much all Clive Cussler novels, they are fun action books that weave history into them.
This book takes the problem of global warming and greenhouse gasses and turns it into quite the adventure, weaving past and present together.
I recommend it for a fun read.
Back home!
Been back home from Southern California since Sunday night and I’ve done some of this
And a lot of relaxing. It is amazing how tired traveling makes you.
Yesterday i did my first day of training for my new on call position, i am doing another day of training tomorrow then tomorrow after the boyfriend and I are hitting the road for a little mini roadtrip.
My roommate ls boyfriend is staying with us while some things get fixed at his place so it’s pretty crowded here and I am excited to get away.
I have been really bad and only worked out once this week. This weekend needs to be very active for me since I haven’t done much this week.
Well that is my quick catchup. Talk to you soon!!!

Runner safety tip #1
Right now it is cold, gray, and raining outside and the fore see able forecast is more rain. That being said it is rain and not snow, it may not feel like it but sping is just a month and a half away which means whether you are running outside right now or not more and more of us will be hitting the streets soon instead of our trusty treadmills.
One really important thing is to keep your running routine varied. It is so easy to find a time and place that fit perfectly into your daily or weekly routine and stick with it. Don’t. Varry when you run and where you run.
Not having variation in your routine makes you and your home vulnerable.
You are vulnerable to stalkers (especially with so much of our lives on social media), kidnappers and sexual assults.
Your home is more vulnerable to being broken into if someone knows you always go out for a run on a certain day and time and are gone a certain amount of time.
I know it’s a pain but try and change it up now and then.
More runner safety tips coming soon!!!!
