A Lot of Not, A Poem by Dr. Seuss?

Fillmore Glen State Park, Moravia, New York

Look at this pretty path that we walked quickly at the week before last! I thought I took a photo of the treacherous stone stairs that Chris and I sprinted up, but alas, I cannot find it. That turned out to be a bad decision though since we had just started out on the path after sitting in the car for an hour, as it resulted in a mini-asthma attack. Or I am very out of shape. It is likely the latter, or both, sigh. Upstate New York is so gorgeous though! I wish we had more time to explore, four days was not enough.

Well, since this is not a travel blog, I must discuss "running." However, I would like to point out that Chris's 85 year old Opa exclaimed that I am "a good marcher" on a separate fast walking occasion in NY.

I keep saying things to myself like, "today is such a gorgeous day for a run!" while I instead make plans to go shopping and gorge on delicious chocolate at Max Brenner in Bethesda. Or, "as soon as I stop feeling so sick and tired after work I'm going to start running again!"

Well, I have made it through to the second trimester and I am no longer sick or tired. So I guess i'm out of excuses. And maybe since the hubster has a prescribed ban from boxing with the heavy bag for 6 months, he might go for a run with me? Perhaps you can help me convince him?
