Checking in
I’ve been a lax writer lately, I know. Summer is moving along too quickly. We leave for the Cape in a week and will be there for about 3 weeks. This past weekend my DH talked me into entering the 5K walk/run here in town for our “Oatka Festival” and guess what? I won for the 50+ female group!!. I walked the 5K in 43 minutes in the rain through athletic fields and woods. I won about 50 dollars in gift certificates. The Farmer’s Market opens this Saturday and we had a ton of visitors to our festival booth who are excited and say they are coming. We even found a fiddle player for our opening.
Weight-wise I’m the same. Better than gaining I guess. I’ve been swimming laps at the local pool. Up to Half a mile now.
So long for now chickies.

Congratulations!!! congratulations!!! I am so impressed with your winning. I won’t be able to complete 5K, most likely. Please do somethintg celebratory. not every 50+ can claim to such fitness.
You seem to have a busy and enjoyable time with the market and the upcoming vacation.
lots of love.

Wow Lyn, you are an inspiring person and I really mean that! I’m sure you will enjoy your vacation. From reading your posts, I’ve come to believe that you have a rare gift - the ability to be happy. Hugs, RubyJean
Woohoo! Good for you. You must be so proud. I am traing for a 5k as well. Blew out the knee so had to take 3 weeks off but back at it again and loving it. I just have to learn to not push when I have pain.
Where u at?
