I finally finished the custom Christmas quilt I was working on. Took me about 6 days. Not constant work, but that's because my back couldn't take it. No pictures yet, because she wanted to bind it first, so....you'll have to come back to see it.:-)
So, I went and started a walking program with a friend of mine. Our goal is to do a walking half marathon. We walk 4 days out of 7 days. 3-8 miles/day depending on the schedule. Then we are supposed to do an alternate type of cross training work out on 2 days, and rest on Sunday. I've done pretty well on the walking days. Not so well on the cross training days. And great on the day of rest:) Haven't lost any weight yet, but surely that'll come! Right? My friend says she feels soooo much better, and has a burst of energy now. I'm still waiting for that to hit as well. Hopefully, soon. Anyway, we've completed 2 weeks of the training program so far. The farthest we've walked is 7 miles. It was supposed to be 6 miles, but we were a mile from the house when we hit the 6 mile mark, so had to go the rest of the way. (HaHa.) The half marathon will be 13 miles total, and we still have 2 1/2 months to train for it, so hopefully I'll get there. Wish me luck!
Until next time!
