Yay! It is a gorgeous day today. The sun is shining and the rain has moved past. I am excited about today and the prospects that it will bring. I am needing to focus and anchor myself this new year. I feel like I have been a bit disjointed or vegetative since the new year has started. I’m not really sure why but it is time to get it together!! I have been enjoying many things these last weeks and I am looking forward to many more awesome opportunities in the near future.
Today I am just hoping to enjoy my students and to go outside as soon as possible after school! I just heard a note on the news that there are only 20 days left before daylight savings time! Yikes, that means only 20 more days before the Thumper Adventure Race!! I’m feeling pretty good about this. My knee is feeling better each day and I am finding time to hit the trail. I need to squeeze in some time with the bike within the next 20 days but that should be doable.
I have been enjoying the exploration of the Perry State Trail lately. We hiked a section I had not previously been on last Saturday. It was pretty cool. Myself and 7 other people, crazy, hit the trail and completed 6.6 miles in 2 hours. We felt that it was a good pace – time to look and see but also pushing us to work hard! We had four boys with us, Marek was the oldest and the youngest was a third grader. It was fun and felt great. We ended at the Grainery and enjoyed some BBQ and beverages! Can’t beat that plan! Today’s plan is to hit the trail alone afterschool. Hoping to do at least 4 miles before I need to pick Marek up from Knowledge Bowl practice. (Yes, basketball is over and the Knowledge Bowl season has begun!) It should be muddy but warm and gorgeous!
Hope you have a plan for the day, a plan that includes something enjoyable!!
Stay tuned to see if I really get it together! :-)
