Frisky Fall

Some days it feels like the stars align.  Everything happens right when you need it to, and when you're ready.  Maybe it's because you're more willing and receptive to the signs, or maybe it truly does just all work on the perfect timing for your journey.  Yesterday was one of those days.

You may have noticed I took a brief hiatus from my goals.  A combination of traveling, unpreparedness, and the lack of a gym zapped my willpower.  And then the other day I perused Groupon and found a 6 month gym membership for $30.  THIRTY DOLLARS.  Couldn't pass that one up, right?  I decided I was going to use that as my last ditch effort to getting my CT5K completed.  So I went on Wednesday, rested Thursday, and had personal training Friday.  The weekend was an indulgent one, so I decided to take it easy look towards my day off on Monday to really pull everything together.

So where is the last piece to my puzzle?  Last night I found out my Tone It Up girls launched a new challenge: Frisky Fall.  There are daily workouts and tests, as well as an overall 100 by Halloween.  That's 6 weeks to get 100 miles, which is scary and exciting at once.  To be fair, you can count gym classes towards the miles, so it doesn't have to be running/walking/biking.

Anyway, that's where I am.  About to run CT5K Week 3, Day 1!

Happy #FriskyFall everyone :)
