Today I finished work late. Unfortunately, I was supposed to be at class so I called my teacher to say I would be late. The teacher said it was ok but I should hurry up! So, I rushed home and changed clothes. But, on the way to class it rained and I got wet! What bad luck!

It’s been almost two weeks since I ran in the Air Force marathon in Ohio. It was my first marathon ever. Actually, I did the half not the full. Still, 13.1 miles is a long way to run especially since I wasn’t sure if I was even going to make it to the event. I started training in June and experienced a foot injury in mid-August, which caused me to stopped running for almost three weeks. I went to see a doctor to be sure I could still run. She cleared me but warned that I should be cautious and not overdue the running. Well, I made it to Ohio having ran very little the last few weeks leading up to the event. I was afraid at first, but my husband’s encouragement pushed me forward. And although I knew I could have walked if I needed to, I was able to slowly run the entire way and I did it in a little over 2 1/2 hours, which was half an hour shorter than my goal of 3 hours. The best part of the entire experience was being able to share this great moment with my family.

今日は休日。 最近少しネガティブな感情が渦巻いていましたので、リセットするためにお出かけしました。 久しぶりにショッピングに行きました。 素敵なパンツを買ったんですが、たまっていたカードのポイントを使ったら、なんと250円で購入できました！
そして帰ってきてからヨガ教室に行きました。たくさん深呼吸して、すごくリラックスできました。汗もたくさんかきました。
リセット完了！

The other day I picked a bad time to go on one of my daily runs. It was probably around everyone’s dinner time. As I ran by everyone’s houses I could smell what everyone cooking for dinner and it smelt great!! This was bad because I was starving. Made it a little difficult to focus. Nevertheless, I finished up strong like I always do.

I have to keep in mind three things for good health. First, I have to remember to exercise. Even when sometimes it is hard to remember after a night at the bar with friends or an all nighter on the job. Then, I have to eat properly. That means having good nutrition. For example, not skipping breakfast, eating a light lunch, and having a wholesome dinner. Last, I have to remember to relax and reduce stress. Of course, that means drinking beer. It also means getting plenty of sleep which means averaging eight hours per night.
