Went walking tonight with Jessi! Decided to do the Salt Rive park or whatever it's called. Not as cool as Bernheim by any means, but it's way closer to home. It's a .67 trail... who maps out a trail at .67 miles?? And it was so confusing as to what actually counted towards a whopping .67 miles. Went around four times and did a little extra " of course' walking so I'd say we walked 2 miles give or take a little bit.

SAW A FREAKING SNAKE! I swear it almost killed us! Ok so that might be a little dramatic, but it was scary! Here we are just trotting along minding our own business, gossiping about everything and bam! I gasp and do the " mom hand grab" on Jessi's arm... and there it is a flipping snake in the middle of the trail, just sitting there plotting our death! That's the one down fall of working out outside verses the gym ... stupid snakes.... that is the second one I have encountered since the beginning of my new work out regimen! It's so dangerous trying to become skinny hahaha

Oh and I have new things I want to try by the way:

In November I am volunteering at the Tough Mudder even in Indiana. SUPER STOKED! I hope to be able to one day participate in it... Im just not there physically yet. http://toughmudder.com/events/     It's insane crazy! And is totally my new motivation

And before I can even think about the Tough Mudder... I want to start doing marathons ..... Got to look into all of this stuff... I'll work on it
