This weekend I am attending the 3-Day Expo and I'm really looking forward to it. I will also be participating in the short training walk before the event - 6.5 miles. I will have to wake up at 5am in Frisco to make it to Arlington in time but I am sure it will be worth the expereince. On my own, I am still building up to longer walks. So far my longest has been five miles - which is the same distance I am walking tonight. I am alternating between my neighborhood and the gym to accomplish these long walks, most of them are in the evening and the gym seems to be the best option.
I am getting a little nervous regarding time management with my new semester coming up, longer hours at work and the time it takes to walk several miles. I am hoping this experience will turn me into an early riser and I'll be able to wake up earlier to accomplish my walking goals rather than squeeze them in during the evening.
Until next time - keep moving forward!

too fun! i'm so glad you got the audio books! i love the pics too! i know what you mean about having time to walk. i'm trying not to freak about it. i'll fit it in...somehow!
have fun at the expo! is kevin going? elise & erik are going so y'all should hook up! i am so sad that i'll be gone. i'll be walking in the mountains in CO!
Do not be sad - it sounds like the mountains of Colorado would be a worthy trade!
Kevin will be in Tulsa for a show and hanging out with the Maloys - I'm very sad he cannot make it, just as much as I wish I could be there ;-).
I have already begun listening to an autobiography of Ben Franklin - next will be the "Art of Happiness" by the Dalai Lama. I figure at this point I should expand my normal choices of literature. Perhaps I will find inner peace while walking - it seems to already be working!
ahahah! love the pic. yes, audio books are the only way i can go to work and finish the harry potter books. definitely, the way to go.
we'll see you at the expo!
thanks-elise
