One year

Well, I finally switched over to beta like a big girl so I can post on Skinny again. We've done this blog for over a year now, gals. Can you believe it?

Do we want to keep it up, even if it's used intermittently? I, for one, am still enjoying it.

I'm logging my workouts over on my Kristen Runs blog, as you gals know. It's been hugely motivating. Set two PR's this week and excited to progress slowly on my bench as well. (I'm remembering getting to 75-100 lbs in a semester of lifting every day back in high school--gotta try to do that again eventually...soon.)

Gotta say it--I am a much happier, less stressed, normal person when I make time to workout in the morning. The day is just better. I work out so many problems in my head while lifting, and usually there's something to laugh or smile about while I'm there, too.

The PBJ situation is progressing nicely. In fact, I will take a test on Saturday. I'll keep you guys updated. :) I know I probably shouldn't be setting PR's in this state, but...it's still early, and I'm not sure it will be a positive test anyway.

Thought I'd link you guys to an excellent article on goal setting from an Olympic thrower. This guy is seriously...well, bad ass. You can read more about him here if you are interested.

I vote that we keep the blog, even tho we don't use it much. I still like feeling connected to you guys thru it... I come by periodically to check in and I read your running blog every once in a while when I need inspiration to do better.

It's a good place for us to discuss health issues, too.

I'm with keeping it going. I for one am ready to get back on track. I like having this here even if I'm not using it every day. :)
