I liked this quote:

"I am thankful that there are different seasons in life and training. I have learned to embrace each season realizing how important it is to allow the body, mind and spirit to fully cycle through each..."  -Ryan Hall

Running has definitely gone on the backburner right now!  Either I'm burned out from school and studying or as a way of preservation, my body is not giving any energy reserves for running while we get the process of mortgage and moving behind us and while I take the NCLEX next week and transition to being a nurse at work (and of course there's still full-time hours to fulfill at work, that's about all the exercise I'm getting right now!).  Either way, I may not have much to offer on the blog in the next while!  Hope you're all doing well.

Like the quote, so true!!! Good luck with everything!! Running is for sure not even close to the most important thing out there, it is RECREATION!!!!

How is the foot (or feet)?

Yes, that is a perfect word for it...recreation! :)

My legs and feet and everything are all doing great!:) Thanks Kelli!

I too love your quote! You do need seasons with running.....each one is sweeter against the next! Just have fun!
