My shadow's the only one that runs beside me...

It has been a whole month since I posted.... oops sorry!

My little running partner is out of commission as she was spayed this past week so I run alone.

I ran alone yesterday for the first time in a very long time and realized how much I miss my four legged companion even if she is yanking my arm out of the socket at every squirrel!

It did give me some time to reflect on yesterdays events though... I am glad that we have found Osama... I won't rejoice in the death of the another human being but glad he is no longer weighing on our minds. His death will not cease terroism.... there will be another person that tries to step in and follow in his footsteps. Nor will it bring back all the Americans and others that have died at his hands.

I think what angers me the most is that Obama is getting such praise for all of this. Yes, he did use our MILITARY'S intelligence and go ahead and set the operation in motion. An American service member, who Obama just a few weeks ago was debating on whether or not to PAY, did. Obama just happened to be the one in office when our soldiers finally found OBL and took him out. This is NOT an Obama victory, but an AMERICAN victory!!

These are the thoughts that roamed around in my head yesterday that I thought I would share. Now back to running! I have several small races coming up all leading up to The Warrior Dash (if you don't know what it is look it up) in August and then a half marathon in November. To prepare myself for the Warrior Dash I have also starting mixing in P90 workouts into my running schedules. I need to build that upper body strength!

This isn't a very exciting post... but just a little insight on where my training is going. I promise to write more often!
