My New Layout



So, my blog has been under construction and has a shiny new design layout.  Pretty nice, huh? I am hoping that my very slow non-computer savvy mind will be able to navigate this one a little easier. PLUS I hope it is easier on the eyes.
I really like it - nice and simple.
I have moved all of my posts here but can't figure out how to transfer all of my pictures back in the posts. ugh! Kind of a pain, but I will work through it. (mainly a bunch of selfies - so you probably wont mind)

OK - shiz is getting real. I signed up for the San Antonio Rock n' Roll Half Marathon AND am taking the 30-day Primal Challenge.  I do better with my health & fitness if I have something to work towards or a schedule...so here goes. 

I think this is the 6th half marathon that I have ran and I am looking forward to it.  I start training the last week of August, but am already running my arse off.  I have been trying to get a little faster and have been suceeding.  Hopefully I will be able to keep it up over several miles.

Here is the training program I use and have used in the past.  It has worked well for me and I wanted to share it.
