Spring sports
May 14, 2006

With the beautiful spring weather has come the opportunity to start up the spring/summer sports. I'm playing baseball (lob ball) every Sunday evening with a church team, ultimate frisbee with a work team, and golf with a work group as well. Last Sunday I managed to hit one over the heads of the outfielders which felt great. Woo hoo! :) Today I'm limbering around after having played a long game of ultimate at Columbia Icefields with the Grebel guys. So tired!

Check this video out. I like it! Too bad it involves two people.


Walk + Run = Fun!
May 4, 2006

Something that I discovered this week is the joy of going for a light jog, but taking the opportunity to stop and walk lots, too. What a great way to ease back into jogging. Instead of getting home with tight calf muscles, sore feet, and my energy level zapped, I came home feeling energized and strong! :)

The Running Room advocates this kind of strategy for beginning runners, which seems like a very wise idea.
