Hello, 2011!


I'm not very good with keeping resolutions. However. I thought about what I'd like to change in 2011 and I came up with these:
  1. Eat more healthy food and less junk food. I was able to live without junk food for 3 weeks last year, so it shouldn't be too difficult (I hope).
  2. Limit time spent online. I noticed that I'd spend hours on twitter, facebook, and tumblr doing nothing at all. It's like a black hole that sucks you in. I should spend time on more meaningful and productive things.
  3. Be present. Being an OC person, I can't help fretting about little things. I'd like to practice living in the moment and just being present.

New training partner


I took my new toy out for a spin earlier this morning. According to Smartcoach, I'm supposed to do an easy 3K today, so it was perfect for getting to know my new training partner better. I love it! And uh oh, I can feel an addiction coming on. Next step is pairing and using the HR monitor.

Being an OC person, I wanted to stick to my target pace (8 mpk) - it's supposed to be an easy run, after all, and my Garmin helped me to do it. Amazing, amazing. Now if only my problematic knees would cooperate...
