Holiday Weekend!

Hello all!

Hope you had a lovely holiday weekend!! Hope you took some time to think about what the holiday was about too; facebook had some good information. Christopher Columbus, Amerigo Vespucci, our nation's dwindling native population. I don't know nearly enough on the subject, but it is important during these types of holidays to think about more than the day off school or work.

Saturday I did a ton of dancing, practiced my tap routines, started choreography on the Our Fabulous Variety Show Holiday Spectacular Spectacular and danced the night away with my love in Stony Brook seeing a very talented friend's band!

Sunday I took a recovery day! Woo!

Monday I was feeling down. Just kind of dreary to match the dreary day. I went out to do a run and my ankle started to spasm and I almost just walked home because I wasn't feeling it but I decided to stretch and warm it up a bit and it finally loosened up. I thought about just jogging lightly for a block or so and calling it a work out and then I remembered the commitment that I made to myself, and to Evolution Fitness to be their EvoFit Loser. I gritted my teeth, cranked some tunes, and took off.

I ran to my favorite place, Duckwalk Vineyards. 5.3 miles up tempo and NO WALKING! Woo!

I would not have started the run, let alone persevered through the stiff muscles and bitter wind if it hadn't been for my Evolution Fitness challenge.

Michael and I rounded off the night with a healthy round of sushi from Suki Zuki and fresh squeezed limeade with no sugar! A great start to a wonderful week :)

Thanks to all! Here's to personal conquest!
