perspective
I have 37 weeks and 3 days to go til the tough mudder - I am still wicked excited about it!! I have dropped some weight/size and it is awesome - still a ways to go, but its all part of the adventure!
In other news I had a fantastic visit with my parents, so glad they could make it down for the long weekend (and so glad I could arrange my schedule to meet my desire to see them too)! My Aunt Susan gave me a gift card for a microwave so now I just have to go get a new zapper! woot!
Okay, perspective - I am working for tough mudder, right? And I am looking at things in a different way. Not just my work outs, which of course I am considering from the standpoint of climbing walls, traversing 10 - 12 miles, the endurance to go the distance AND get over the obstacles along the way - these are all things I think about yes, but this isn't what I am referring to. No instead I am referring to the other things. For instance, one of the points in the tough mudder pledge is I don't whine, kids whine - and that has me stopping myself from complaining about the things that can't change. And the things that can change - well get up and change them! Its not about what you can't overcome, can't change, can't do - its about what you try and what you conquer - separately and together.
So my perspective is shifting - and I am okay with this!
