On the Running Band Wagon
It has been a very long time since I have posted anything on my blog and yet a whole lot has happened. The biggest event and the one that I have been posting lots of is the birth of my beautiful daughter.
Now, it was at the end of last year that the father-in-law passed a comment about wanting to run a marathon as part of his bucket list. I wasn't that keen for a full marathon and suggested that we just started with a half.
Our sights were set for the Rotorua Half Marathon and the training begun. I had a little bit of trouble with knees but still get there in the end. 2hr 36min Not bad at all.
The next thing I knew was that Kevin had signed up for the Huntly Half the following weekend. There was no way that I was going to let him get one up on me so I had to enter it aswel. 2hr 26min. It was the first time that I have ever gone under 2hr 30min.
The next race we entered was the Trail Trilogy which was a 14km, 21km, and 29km race each a month apart.
This weekend is the Whangamata Race where I hope to get close to 2hr 20min.
I then have the Hamilton Half 4 weeks later and the Queenstown full Marathon in November.
Will try and keep the blog posted with my thoughts and progress.

A busy school holiday
It took a week but the bathroom is now all back together. The plasterers have been and it's now ready for painting. I have organised for a guy to come and paint it as I'm just running out of time.
I have also built a chicken coup. It is one of the first things that I full built and it's not to bad. The chickens don't seem to mind

Bathroom renovation
Been a busy day with Kevin pulling apart the bathroom. Ended up spending all day ripping out the gib, roof, and shower. Had to get the plumber out to stopper the different taps.
Went to Bunnings to get all the different supplies and now we are just starting the slow process of rebuilding.

Bathroom renovation
Started the bathroom renovation tonight. Fingers crossed that all goes well. I have needed to update the bathroom for a long time so it feels good to finally be getting around to it.
Kevin is coming over early tomorrow to start help with the transformation.
