October is Busy

The month of October has been filled with many events for me, thusly I have let my blog posts go to the sideline. My bad. When consistency is key (in all areas of life) it is unfortunate when you slip a bit.

At any rate. Today I just wanted to take a moment to sum up the month.

To begin, I have been doing my couch to 5k runs for about 8 weeks now. I took two different full weeks off in order to rest and listen to my body (I have two different length legs and it effects my knees). Each run after my rest, has been my best runs yet. Today I went 2.48 mi which is significantly further than any other run.

Next we have the birthday party for little Rosilyn. She turned one mid month and I planned a One In a Melon themed party for her. Of course the party was mainly for mom and dad (to celebrate the amazing-ness of the last year) but we invited all of Rozzi's friends, had some bubbles, vegan cake and watermelon everything. It was so much fun. Champagne was popped and a few beers were had.

Then we traveled. We flew to Oklahoma for a family members wedding. That was awesome. The weather was great and Roz did amazing. Even though the day we came back, we spend more than 1/2 the day in different airports. It's times like that where my superfood nutrition comes in handy the most. It was so nice to have my full meal bars and shakes on deck in lieu of airport food.

This week I have a work function on my day off (joy). And then we have a pumpkin patch to go to tomorrow.

I'm down 5lbs and feeling pretty good. I try not to beat myself up on those days that I may have a few extra treats or don't get a workout in. Overall, I'm pretty happy with the month and I plan on getting better throughout the month of November.

Cheers.
