Our FL hiatus!



We finally gave in... we cried 'Uncle' on Mother Nature and my family and I went to Florida for a week. It was SO nice to run in warm weather and log as many miles as we possibly could. We did get caught in the rain once... the skies just opened up and poured down, but it truly was a welcomed rain and created a really fun memory!





So now it's time to get back into our running routine and fight through the cold weather. I learned a few things on vacation... the most important lesson being that health doesn't go on a hiatus. It (health) goes where we do and it is critical to always pay attention to our body, mind, and soul.

So glad you got to finally get the heck outta dodge (aka: west michigan!) Grady looks like he's having a good time swimming :)

Yay for Florida! I used to live there and occasionally question why I came back! I honestly feel like it is easier to be healthy in Florida (not when you're there on vacation of course) because the food seems fresher and you definitely want to be outside much more!! ~Morgan

I agree with you Morgan that it is easier to live a healthier lifestyle in FL. We noticed on our morning runs that the sidewalks were bigger and the paths were nicely paved... definitely an incentive to get outside more!

Aletha, you should see the other pictures of Grady in the pool... he wasn't as happy as he is here! :)
