My Birthday Month

Today is the first day of my birthday month.  I celebrate my birthday the ENTIRE month of September!

When I work up this morning I prayed, thanked God, helped my BFF on the east coast with a pivot table and then did my one mile walk/run.

I have never been a runner but one of the items on my diva list is to be a runner.  I want to run in the half marathon in SF in May in which you can do the half marathon or the 5K.   I want to at least do the 5K, but if I can do the half marathon, even better!

So I'm starting out slow...During my one mile walk in the mornings...I run for 30 seconds then walk a minute or two.  I do this a few times, not until I'm exhausted...just to build up my stamina.  Today I finished my mile in less than 20 minutes and that's GREAT for me :)

So after my run, I did 3 sets of 20 jumping jacks, 20 squats, 20 crunches.

But I'm late for work and why?  Well I got up, did my one mile, the 3 sets of 20jj's, squats, curnches, a small yoga practice, pedicure, shaved my legs, did my hair, this blogpost and cooked breakfast...oh and in honor of my birthday month, I changed by ringback tone to "September" by Earth,Wind and Fire. :)

Now I'm off to work!
