I started this walking/ running challenge with my friend Micha last week and within three days had pretty bad blisters on my feet. Rather than keep going and creating a bigger problem-I took a break and allowed my feet to heal- while Micha has inched up ahead of me in this challenge. I don’t mind- since it’s not about winning, but more about challenging each other to strive for more, but I’ve still been itching to get back out there.
Thankfully- I think that time is coming. In addition to the Nike + iPod app that I have (which works with the sensor in my shoe), I’ve also downloaded the Nike +GPS app that I still need to try out. I’m going to use it when I’m at the beach or at other places where I won’t be wearing my shoes and the sensor…
I know it seems as though I’ve abandoned this space- but that’s not true. “Life” has been happening and it’s kept me from writing as much as I generally would. I’m hoping that changes are in the making..
In the meantime- anyone else who wants to join in and walk- please do so 🙂
I really need to start walking again, and biking… Are you guys doing a c25k or something?

We are Tammy- I just started b ack yesterday though and I was ready..
My friend Anna, who lives in Rijswijk was here yesterday and she is coming to have cupcakes wht us- and she is hoping to find someone who may want to walk or something. She is SUPER sweet. Maybe the two of you will hit it off and want to get together and walk.. It’ great having someone to encourage-that’s for sure.

Sounds like a good challenge; what are the rules? Maybe I could join in – albeit remotely??
