Happy New Year! I hope all of you enjoyed the holiday season. It is hard to believe it has already come and gone....
I had a wonderful break! I spent the first week down here at school; volunteering at and working. Then I was ready to go home. It felt great to be back in , but the drive seems to take longer and longer. While I was home I got to watch my brother play basketball, spend time with my family, eat TONS of food, and see my boyfriend.....okay I might have done a little shopping too! I am having some problems with my knee right now, so I was unable to run over break, but I was in the gym every day working out and lifting. After being home for a week and a half it was time to get back to . We still had a few days before school started, so my boyfriend came down to spend them with me. We went ice skating downtown which was so much fun and did some relaxing!
Unfortunately the relaxation, food, and festivities are done and it is back to business. Classes started back up yesterday so the homework and reading assignments have begun!
You know you're a distance runner if ...you own spandex in more than one color.
Until Tomorrow, Enjoy Today. Nic
