Checking in

Happy Tuesday!  First things first, the winner of The Color Run entry is Sadie B!  Sadie please email me at KindaZennish@gmail.com and I will give you your entry code.

Second things second, we’re more than half way through January, have you been working on any New Year’s resolutions or monthly goals?  I usually don’t set any goals for the whole year but you know this year I decided to try to run 500 miles by the end of the year.

I keep turning it around in my head trying to figure out a plan. Hmm…

  •  250 miles per half year
  • 125 miles per quarter
  • 41.666 a month
  • 9.6153 a week
  • 1.369 a day

The further I break it down the easier it sounds. Heck. it’s only about .057 miles per hour this year!  Ya.  I haven’t actually run 9 miles a week, as a matter of fact I got off to a very slow start on the running front. But I’m already picking up the miles a bit and I figure if I can keep steadily increasing my mileage I shouldn’t have a problem catching 500 at the end of the year.

Granted right now I am only at 15 but, you know, I wanted plenty of room to improve.  🙂

2014-RunThisYear

How are you doing with your running goals?  Are you going to running this year?

Happy Thanksgiving!! Happy Thanksgiving!!
Did an overnight side quest to see Organ Pipe Cact Did an overnight side quest to see Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument. It's not on the way to or from anywhere and I have been wanting to see it for ages but it's 3 hours from Benson AZ. 

So worth the trip! There are several cactus species that only grow in this area. I got pictures of organ pipe cactus and senita. 

 It's a green desert which sounds odd until you see it. I don't think i've ever seen so many kinds of desert plants in one place in my life. And I was raised camping in the desert most weekends.

Also- The campground is amazing. There are no amenities but it more than makes up for it in views.

Granted it was because I hurt my shoulder the week before and didn't want to drive the rv all day but the pics I took on today's hike are enough to know it was a good decision!

I spent the day in Santa Fe. There are SO many sho I spent the day in Santa Fe. There are SO many shops, galleries, museums and pop ups just in the little area I visited! I think I could easily spend a month in the city and not see everything.

It's the oldest continuously inhabited community in the U.S. - over 1000 years. If you are anywhere nearby it's a must visit! Lots of amazing art & food.
