And lots has been happening -- at our practice we finally finished renovations and moved into our new space, which we're loving.
The shopping and deciding was fun for a while, but if I ever have to enter another lighting store, I might lose it. |
Phil was working like a dog on a business book about his specialty -- organizational change -- and was published in March this year. So proud. There's been a whirlwind of speaking engagements, interviews, reviews, projects, etc. You can read all about it at his blog Making Change.
The first shipment had just arrived, and he was colour coordinated! |
I got back into the running swing of things in March with the Achilles St. Patrick's Day 5k. I took almost 32 minutes to run it (see earlier reference to not running at all), and have run five others since then with improvement each time (except let's not talk about the Harry's Spring Run Off as that hill is just stupid). The most fabulous was yesterday's Pride and Remembrance Run. So fun and a huge PR for me down to 27:35. Still a lot of room for improvement, but it's great to be able to see progress for a change.
I'm still doing bootcamp twice weekly, then I do 10 x 400m intervals at the lake on Sundays, unless there's a race, hills on Wednesdays and at least 2 other easy 5k runs around the neighbourhood. Nothing takes more than an hour.
With Phil, Mel, Steve and better-than-a-mascot Ontario Premier Kathleen Wynne. So cool. |
Team Beaverhausen 2013. The only thing missing in this race is medals, so I made some for the team this year. |
I have been sporadically keeping up with my bloglist and hopefully some of my favourites who have also been silent will make a comeback too!
