two weeks til hawaii.....

....and I wish we were leaving NOW!

I've lived in Arizona my whole life, so I know how brutal the summers are. So why am I always surprised when it starts to get unbelievably hot? I should know better by now :)

This is why I am so excited for Hawaii! Even though it will still be warm there, at least it won't be suffocatingly hot. It's like you walk outside here and you feel like you can't breathe, it's so hot. Although I'm not gonna lie, because my work is always really cold, I kinda look forward to walking outside after work into the heat. I enjoy it for like a second. Haha.

Running update- my leg is still being stupid. I run like five steps and it throbs and I limp for an hour. Stupid!! I can barely jump on the diving board, it feels like my leg will collapse under me. The good news now is that I don't have an excuse to not work out with the people at work during lunch. The trainer at work is totally brutal, and he worked us so hard on Thursday that my arms are still sore four days later. I love being sore, so I'm not complaining! And I love working out. I figure four more weeks off of running and I should be back to normal. Hopefully! I should try barefoot running, except it's so hot that the soles of my feet would burn right off! Ugh! Maybe if I find a grassy field... and run circles. Ha ha.

Well, seeing how my marathon would have been in a week, I was supposed to go to Utah this coming weekend. Not anymore! I'm kinda sad, but I figure I shouldn't take off work because I'm already taking off so much for Hawaii. Everyone's gotta make sacrifices once in a while!

Have a good week!
