Training

I am once again in full training mode. I will be doing the See Jane Run Half-Marathon in Seattle on July 17th.  I would like to run/walk this race but because of leg issues I think it's going to be more like walk/jog. I will be doing the race with my sister, so it will be fun no matter the speed.(My sister walks as fast as me and she runs faster. So if anything I am going to be the slower one.)

Right now I get my run* in after I drop off my youngest at school. So with only week and a half before school gets out for the summer,  I will have to find a new time. And with this being Texas the low temp not is below 70 now. Running earlier is the day works much better for me. I have already gotten to the point were I have to carry water with me and it well only get warmer.  I will most likely switch to a sunrise run time. I think that the sunrise has to be the coolest time of day when it is light out. I don't run in the dark. I street run it's just not safe, to many hazards that you can't see. And I am already my own hazard.

 Don't forget to check out My Garden                                                               

*It's easiest to call everything a run. My goal is run as much as can but some days it's only walk.

What is your Dream Planner?

  I can never find a planner that works for me. I have a day job, two business and kids. I am also one of those people that needs to write everything down or I end up missing something. For years I have taken part of different planners that I like to make them my own. Now I have decide to take this one step further. I am make all of pages and I am looking to make a planner for small business owners. I have put together a quick 6 question survey, to help me know what other business owners are looking for. No name or email needed to take the survey. Thank You in Advance! Click the link to start! https://chantel7021923.typeform.com/to/WQDeX7Me

I feel so behind in getting a blog post up. Life has been keeping very busy but all in good way. Now I recently got myself an ipad to replace my laptop that had died. So I have been trying to figure out the best way to write on the ipad. I think I found the best way for now. With less than a month before my half marathon and trying to train in the Texas heat is a challenge. But getting out early and lots of water make it manageable. I am swimming on my cross train day and sometime on run days too. (I am already at the pool six days a week and it gives me something to do vs standing around for an hour.)  The garden is coming a long. I have twenty beds in area 66' x 7'. So I have a lot  of plants in the ground and still have some beds that I have not planted yet. But this Texas and I do have a long growing season. So they will end up with plants in them. My biggest concern with the garden right now is water. We are under tight  water restrictions . When the rules were made th...
