3 short ones

I couldn't seem to get myself started today and ended up being forced out the door for my walk. I needed to walk some place new as the canal has become a bit of a bore and so drove off for a quick three miles on the sea wall. Walking on the sea wall proved to be a lot more challenging than the canal as the distance was deceptive; it felt like I was moving so slowly but my watch kept telling me I was on pace. . . think I'll have to clock a few more miles there as I imagine there will be a times on the night that the walking will get monotonous and I want to have the ability to shut the feeling out, put my head down and motivate. The three short miles brought three little thoughts.

1. Don't eat beans on toast before going on a speed interval walk- gave myself a horrible side stitch!

2. The sea is eerie when there are no boats on the water and the sky is gray- too too quiet.

3. The last time I walked the loop from today was the day Spencer's sister & brother-in-law told us they were pregnant for the first time. They'll be having their second baby sometime next month. I can't get over how quickly the years are passing these days, seems only a moment since we had Hannah and soon there will be five little ones in the family. Congrats to them!!!
