Are You Game?

Things I learned from “watching” the game last night

1. Doritos, cars, and beer spend a helluva lota mulla on advertising
2. Superbowl commercials are still commercials!
3. Football players come in many shapes and sizes.
4. I’m not a Fergie fan, although I have tried to be in the past.
5. I cannot watch football.

Seriously.  I genuinely tried to watch the game and pay attention but my mind focuses inward just being around a football game.  I’m just not cut out to be a sports fan.  Luckily Tate is only a little more interested in sports than I am so it doesn’t factor into our daily lives.

So I left the party after halftime.  I needed vegetables and PJ’s and anything but football.

The earlier part of my Sunday was much more my cup of tea.

Hiking with friends

Tate, Matt, Kath, Anna, the ever-adorable Arlie, four-legged Loki, and I went traipsing around Carter Mountain/Monticello area for 4.25 miles.

Even the littlest did some walking!

Tate and I arrived back home late afternoon and ready for lunch.  The fridge was empty but the pantry was full.  Mmmm garden vegetable soup and english muffins!

After lunch I just wanted to spend more time outside and enjoy the sunshine so I went out on a 3.5 mile “walk & talk”.  I called family and friends that I wanted to catch up with and the miles/time  flew by!

February goals update: the first week of the month I walked 20 miles and ran 2.  This is slightly down from the 25 walking miles and 7.5 running miles per week I need to average in order to reach my goals but it was a 6 day week!  And once my gym membership is up on Thursday I will be back to running more.

Are you game for a walking goal?  Did you set a milage goal for the month?  100 miles in a month sound like too much?  How about 2 miles a day?  Let’s walk our way to Springtime!
