August (New Zealand Winter)
By: Erica
A week and a half away from August, where is the year disappearing too?? I like getting to August, this signifies that spring is getting closer, the daffodils will start appearing and the weather will start getting warmer. Over the last 2 weeks I have been asked to be a guest speaker on two occasions, one to a group of adults with a variety of different needs, and one to a adult historical group, they wanted to know about me, what I’m achieving in life, about my half marathon, and I guess some good old fashioned inspiration. I am really enjoying the experiences and I hope I get many more in the near future. I’m still working on my book (long term goal) but the concentration right now is making it through a half marathon!! Currently I can run a good pace for about 2km, but I need to get to 21km!! So keep willing me on! One thing I hate about this cold, all I want to do is eat comfort food and binge watch movies, but my will power is semi getting me through, bring on summer and summer healthy food!!
