monday monday...

well, i hope you all had an amazing weekend, we had our first official snow here in spokane on friday night, it all melted by saturday morning but it was good! one thing i experienced this weekend was a stiff neck... im attributing it to poor sleep, stress, and lack of proper stretching... do not for get to stretch! every time you exercise or use muscles you arent used to using on a daily basis, sttreettcchhh them out... i had an amazing 2 mile run yesterday (i only did 2 because once my heart rate was up the stiffness in my neck created a headache) it was beautiful. i was in Ceour d'Alene Idaho having my car fixed by a friend and went for my run up towards the national park... the colors mixed with the evergreens and only a couple hundred feet up the hillside was snow... get out and enjoy the seasons. you dont have to run, you can walk. this time of year the air is clean and fresh and the animals are out and about scurrying to get ready for winter... hit the trails while you can... for those of you in western wa you have a major advantage, there are trials right in your back yard... LOTS OF THEM!! even in the down town areas of auburn, puyallup, bonney lake and sumner. if you dont want to drive too far you dont have to... let me know if you need ideas of where to go and i will point you in the right direction... remember, eat to live, dont live to eat...
