Couch to 5K




Borrowed Image from this site

Okay, so, I have to admit something... I am not a runner.



In fact, I hate running. Nothing against those that love it, honestly, ya'll rock in my book, I am jealous of your amazing legs, your fit trim body and your endurance.



In fact, I've always thought I had Exercise Induced Asthma, is that a thing? Or did I make it up in head?



(reminder to self, must Google that)



Anyway. I've decided that I am going to run a 5K, I've always wanted to, but well, I can't run. I look reeeeedikulous when I run. Like I have a severe mental disability. So, in order to not embarrass myself, I've always stuck to what I am good at.



Watching TV.



But it's time. It's time to learn to run, do a 5K and then a Triathlon.



So, I started a training program called Couch to 5K, I started it about a month ago, and so far, so good. I've been able to do each week, and I feel good about myself. Still not a runner.



I still look like I belong in a mental hospital, but I guess function over form.



I figured I'd use my blog as an accountablity site for my running.



Week 4, done, and I'm not dead. That's a plus.



Anyone else a better couch potato, than a runner?

Rae Leytham: Amazing Photography

Image
I believe that a photographer's sole job is to capture your wedding on film and tell a story, your wedding story. So when looking for your wedding photographer, ask to look at their albums (digital or book or whatever) and if you can't really see a story, then well, you've been warned. When I saw this wedding on Rae Leytham's site, I just knew I was smitten with this couple, and I hadn't even met them. Yet I felt like I was totally at their wedding.... maybe I was the Maid of Dishonor in my head... did I just say that outloud? This was just a snippet from this amazing couple's wedding, check out Rae's blog for more gorgeousness! What was your determining factor when looking for your photographer?
