I have been quite busy with my photography - trying to make a living from it, home, work and other life's challenges. These are all very lame excuses but hey, I had to defend myself some how.
Speaking of challenges, I got myself into doing a half marathon. Yup 13.1 miles of stupidity. It's for a very good cause - LLS (Lukemia & Lymphoma Society), but I was never a long distance walker. Ain't nobody got time for that! But, im going to make time and walk till I drop. You may think it's easy, not so much when you haven't exercised in over 10 years. I'm sweating just thinking about it or could that be a hot flash. I forgot to mention that I am no spring chicken either - that's right, I am now considered OTH and on the downhill side of life. Oh BTW, it was a hot flash. Damn those things.
Let's get back to that 13.1 mile thing. Did you know that's about a 4 hour walk at a pace of 16 minutes per mile. Who the hell, wants to walk for 4 hours - I can barely drive for that long and my legs start cramping up and I start twitching. God, that means I need to set a goal to walk really fast, SHIT!
GOAL:13 minute miles = 4.6 miles per hour
TIME: 2.8 hours (round trip)
See how well I am doing!
