It seems my blog posts are getting more and more sporadic as time goes by. As life would have it, I am officially in week 9 of my 12 week fieldwork experience. There has been a lot of cool stuff going on. Mostly, I am proud of the fact that I am training and working hard for my first marathon in November. It's going to be pretty amazing in the way that something brutal and physically painful can be.
This past weekend I ran more miles in two days than in some previous months. Saturday I ran a whopping 16.2 miles. Yes, that's right - 16. I am so proud of myself. A year and a half ago I was almost 100 pounds heavier and could barely run a mile. Now I'm running more than I've ever dreamed. I absolutely love running and am so blessed to enjoy something so healthy for me. So Sunday, I ran 9 miles and then Monday I ran 4.5 miles.
It was a brutal weekend. I took Tuesday off and finally my legs have recovered. Just in time for me 8.2 mile run this morning. If you couldn't tell, my life literally revolves around the miles I have to run. But I like it that way.
On another note, I am absolutely loving acute care and am hoping to get a job in that setting when I graduate. In fact, right now there is an open position in Richmond where I ultimately want to get a job. I'm hoping to talk more with my manager about it and see what positions will be open in the long run.
Lastly, I have been having so much fun since KIMMY came back from Maine. I didn't realize how sad and lonely I was when she left for her summer break. Though, I'm glad she had time off to relax and spend time with family, I am selfishly pleased that she's back in Richmond. We've been doing a lot of fun things.
Love it. That's all for now. Hopefully, I'll be back soon.
Yay! I'm glad we're back together in Richmond too! I missed you.
