I am a thirty-three year old woman who just started running. I have a rare condition called Hyperaldosteronism, which causes me to have hypertension. I have no history of exercising due to childhood asthma. I have stopped using that as an excuse now that it has been almost twenty years since I've outgrown it. I also like expressing the crazy shit that happens from time to time in my life. I will treat this like a journal of sorts.

Time Flies When You're in School
Wow! I can't believe it has been so long since I updated this. I haven't been working out by body since April. Only my mind. I finished one semester only to start another one a week later. Summer session sucks!! But I am back in the saddle as of Monday of this week. I signed up for the gym because I hate running in the heat. I had been once or twice with David but nothing too serious. Monday I decided to get back into doing something. I have a little time now that school is almost over so I wanted to spend that extra time working on me. I worked out my upper body on Monday and then did one hour/14 miles on the bike on Tuesday and today I worked out legs. I am sore today. I planned on going everyday this week but I need some rest tomorrow. I did lunges and really did my legs in too much for more cardio tomorrow. But I will be back to it Friday and then Saturday to get my full 5 days in. I am very excited about starting again. I still have plans to run again but when it gets cooler. Not sure if a half marathon is in my immediate future but it's still only summer. I am headed off to San Francisco right after school lets out and I am excited about that. Maybe I'll get a run in out there. I know the weather will be nice!! I hope to keep up with my blog better than I have been but writing papers all summer doesn't make me want to write for pleasure.
