Yesssss... It is official now: I have neglected my blog...
I could probably use many excuses but the truth is that I just was doing various stuff and somehow did not feel like going on internet much. I tried to use the last days of warm and sunny weather, be outside, read, clean, meet with friends, and have quality time with my kitties. I also had to go to work, of course, and all of the sudden IT IS THE END OF NOVEMBER!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anyway...
The Half-Marathon I wrote about last is over. I did it! I am proud of myself because it was my first and I managed somehow to be 4th in my age group. I feel super-motivated to train for the next year. It was a great experience. There is something special about hundreds of people running together! This week I am resting, no runs. I have some extra time on my hands, so I have decided to write a little update here and post some pictures:
At the end of the race:
Now I am allowed to have display this sticker:

Other things... The cold weather has started. It is dark, too. I try to stay busy and not pay attention to it but it is going to be long few months before spring arrives. I still work on knitting some blankets. Actually I work on 3 separate projects, which is not good because I jump from one to another and nothing gets finished on time really. Try to catch up with reading too. Bought myself a book about Nikola Tesla- fascinating!!!!!! The only downside, I started feeling bad about "not being productive" enough. This guy would always do something, invent, learn new languages, worked sometimes 15-20 hours a day, and somehow still had time to meet with other people for a game of billiard or for dinner! I had to do some soul searching and decided that I need to step up my own game a little.
Soon. :)
