Time for a few big changes

Hello hello my lovelies! I am excited to say that my life has been completely changed in the last couple of weeks. I had seemingly fallen off the face of the Earth due to my 60-70 hour work weeks which left me with no energy to do anything fun, including running. I had a few “Ah Hah!” moments when it comes to the way I have been living my life. I wasn’t able to run yet another race, but to me, it wasn’t just another race, it was Gorge Waterfalls 50k put on by Rainshadow Running. I had been looking forward to this race for a very long time. This was just one of those things that didn’t sit well with me and I couldn’t put it to the side. I had a turning point at work; they asked me to work more hours and asked me to work even harder. So I decided it was time for me to part ways with Amazon and find something new.

As far as I know, we only get one life to live and I am going to try harder to live that way, enjoy life more and not just toss it out the window for a big corporation to just swallow and take advantage of.

That's right, I said it. And you know it's true. Today I thought I'd share with you a few memes that make me laugh.  This one is huge for me! Every time I see someone actively working out at the gym that is over weight I want to go up and give them a high five and say they are awesome.  Enough said! How I feel after long runs. Yeeps! The best one yet!  To have the enthusiasm of this girl! I hope you all enjoyed and at least giggled once or twice, yes, giggled!  Keep on running!

520 10k

Did you know that Seattle hosts that largest floating bridge in the world! And for their grand opening they hosted a 10k race! The Go Long 520 10k , how cool is that! This was one opportunity that I just couldn't miss. This was the first 10k that I have run in months and months. So I really didn't know what to expect as far as pace. My goal was to get below 1 hour and I did! I came in at 57 minutes! Which is the fastest I have ever run 10k.  The race had many issues, bottle-necking was the primary one. Thankfully I was keeping a fast enough pace to miss out on those problems though. But considering that it was a pop up race that had never been done before, I think it went very well.    My power pose for finally getting below 1 hour! Keep on Running!
