marathon training kickoff

ok, i know... it's been since april since i posted anything. but i'm back now, and hopefully i'll try to make this a trend.

today was the first day of our new (and hopefully permanent) fitness kick: marathon training. we've got a training guide (the non-runner's marathon trainer), we've got new shoes and clothes on the way (courtesy of nike.com and my wallet), and we've got motivation: get prepped to run the big race!

which big race? well, we haven't decided yet. we'll figure it out when we see how this goes.

today's first step was fast walking to get us into training shape: 30 minutes of walking at a fast pace. we did pretty well: 2.14 miles in 30 minutes.

we do this two more times this week, then next week we switch to 4 days of 45 minutes of fast walking. the running starts in week 3.

stay tuned!

is it may already?

ok, so i've been a bad blogger... no posts since february, and i'm very sorry. i would beg off by saying it's been busy, but hasn't it been that way for everyone? what's been up? a wedding in pittsburgh, two awesome nights of karaoke, a going away party, and lots of the usual.

oh, and we also had a boarder for a weekend in april:


luckily, we found his owners a few days later, and he got to go home. turns out he was a little confused about which townhouse was his.

finally, we got rock band a month or two ago, only the greatest video game in the world (imo). hoping for some rock band parties in the near future. i love it!!!!

they almost pulled it off

well, it didn't end well for the terps, but at least they gave the pukies a run for their money for a good portion of the second half.

for a while there i had some hope that we might just win it!

next time... at least we have a great future ahead of us with all those freshmen on the team.

c'mon terps!!!

tough first half... puke 41, terps 30
i can only cross my fingers for the second half...


i'd love for the terps to split the season with duke. it's going to be tough, but the team that's playing tonight is a very different team than the one that played the first time. my terpies have really come into their own over the last 8 or 9 games. the team has really meshed and learned how to play together.


on an entirely different topic, i promised to post some photos from our vacation once honey downloaded them from his camera. here are a few:
