Oh, the frustrations of food relations and exercise!

As we've already established, I am not good at balance... and my myriad vacations over the summer have taken their toll on my habits. The exercise I did couldn't keep up with the eating out, and I put on a few pounds. Thankfully, coming home and eating my home cooking has helped to take off a couple -- BUT, my Plantar Fasciitis is now acting up again and getting in the way of my running schedule.

I have gone on runner's websites to see how other runners deal with this uncomfortable issue, and I see that many of the runners are equally obsessed with continuing their running in spite of the flare ups. Yay! So I am currently following their example and trying to treat my foot while continuing with my running.

I'm excitedly training for my first half marathon in February, while trying to balance working with my husband and taking care of the family -- as well as getting the kids ready to head back to school.

Hopefully, come the end of August, I will have more time for blogging.

For now, though, just continuing to move in the right direction will need to be enough for me.
