Muddy Morning

This morning Kimbo and I took a nice long walk/run around the neighborhood. He really liked it, can you tell from the picture below? He was being all macho dog, barking at all the dogs that kept trying to mess with us. The only complaint I did have about him is that he pausing a lot, hence the reason I wrote "walk/run." That prevented me from running for long periods of time, but hopefully he gets the hint next time and keeps running.

Happy tired Kimbo!

Look at my muddy "new" shoes! I knew I shouldn't have worn them out after a rainy weekend (BIG DUHH!!!). I got them about a month ago and had only worn them to the gym. Through the morning I kept cringing as I looked down.

Surprisingly, it was not that hard to wake up this morning despite going to bed past 2am... I don't know what woke me up, but when I did I knew I had to go for a run. I got dressed, got Kimbo ready and 10 minutes later we were out the door! 

I've been slacking on tracking my progress on my blog, but I intend to make it a priority to my readers. I will post my daily runs on Daily Mile so feel free to check it out!! The Dallas Half Marathon is less then 3 months away! I'm excited but I still have a lot of work to do!

GMD: Gym, Max and the DNC

Finally I had a day off on Tuesday and what better way to get the day started by sleeping in! But as usual, my mother had other plans -_- "Get up!" "Did you take care of your inspection sticker?" "Get up!" "Blah.. blah... blah..." So I got up and had no choice but to act like an grown up. I got my inspection sticker, paid my car insurance and went to the gym. I know, crazy? I ran on the treadmill and inclined the heck out of that thing. It felt good to challenge myself and pretend I was running up a hill. I also did cycling for 30 minutes. 

After a cold shower, Max and I spend most of Tuesday night watching the Democratic National Convention. 

He loved Michelle Obama's speech. 

But last night during President Bill Clinton's speech, he was a little cold.

Regardless of your political party affiliation, get out and vote! The beauty about voting is that no matter your income, education level or career path, we all get one vote. Get out and vote!
