random thoughts that didn't fit into the last post

1) I apparently needed more recovery from the half marathon than I had originally thought. Sunday I went to the animal shelter & after walking the dogs for an hour and 20 minutes I was extremely exhausted & had to go home. Monday I tried to go to the gym to do some lifting but I settled for an EASY 3 mile run instead & then took the next two days off. I felt good on my run today though.

2) I have joined the my work's walking club. We get together once a week at lunch to go for a walk. I think I might do that a couple other times a week just to get outside while it is still super nice out.

3) I also joined my work's softball team. After watching my brother's games for two seasons, I am excited to test out my skills. My brother and I went to the batting cages last week, and 14 people showed up for our first softball practice on Wednesday. The season is long though so it'll be interesting to see who's still there at the end.

4) I might be going to London for work for two weeks, including memorial day. I am really excited because I wanted to go on my own but with all the triathlon stuff my vacation/money is all gone. 3-day weekend in Barcelona?

5) My newest music obsessions are so bad they're bad (or extremely good). One Direction (the british boy band invading america) and "Call Me Maybe" by the canadian teenager signed by Justin Bieber. They are quite catchy and it's about time we had another good boy band since we are in the era of 90s nostalgia.

6) A good CD you are probably missing (like really actually good, not so bad it's good) is Jake Owen's CD - Barefoot Blue Jean Night. There is only 1 song I don't like on it.

7) You should also check out Hunter Hayes. There is not a single song I don't like on that one.
