athletics....

confession: i am not naturally athletic.

i have always had to work at being decent in sports. i definitely have to put the time and sweat into the sport. one of my best friends can pick up a golf club, jump in a pool, or throw a football with the finess of a well-trained athlete----all this after a filling meal from the cheesecake factory! i am not that girl.

training this week is a lot of running. in the past 4 days, i have run a total of 26 miles and swam over 2.5 hours. i still have more to go this week. my motto is--slow and steady wins the race!

i am tired and my nurse tells me i am too intense. i admire her so much that she spoke up and told me that i was being to sharp with everyone! maybe i have to start going to bed before 9?!?!
