Ten Topics Turning in my Toboggan!
1. I am convinced you cannot simultaneously have a clean house and actively train for an event.
2. Having TWO new pairs of running shoes is the bomb
3. Here is my Creativity Collage I did ~2 wks ago as part of my Creative Energy Teleclass. I'm trying to journal about it 1x a wk
4. Getting to a yoga class @ 6 or 7pm is hard when you have 4 yr olds
5. I'm thinking of taking a few clients again with personal training
7. Doing my speedwork still sucks the big one ;-)
8. Today's the last chance to enter my Athleta $150 Giftcard Giveaway!
9. I can't BELIEVE it's the last day of August!
10. YOU fill in the blank. What's Turning in Your Toboggan?: ____________________

Love this post.
In my toboggan this week? keeping a balanced life is hard, but worth the effort.
I'm a Mental Health Counselor (in WA, about to move to NC where it will be an LPC) but I will be taking about 3 more classes to sit for my MFT so that if my hubby and I move to Cali (he's from Berkeley and wants to go to Sanford Med school or UCSF) then I can actually get a job...ugh, more school! As you mentioned it is hard enough to have a clean house while training, through in parenting, military wifing, working and school and I will have a straigh up pig stye!!! Oh well! =) I'm exhausted just thinking of all that!!
7- Ugh, i agree 100%
10 - just trying to muster enough energy to make it to the end of the season
And yeah, I'm so excited you are thinking of sharing your personal training skills with others!
I've found that while I don't necessarily like having a messy home, its when its a mess that we are the most happy and fulfilled. I try not to let it bother me because I know that we are spending our time on activities we love to do.
I think it great you might be doing PT. Wish I lived closer. :)
#2 - sounds great. What is NOT the bomb is having a brand new pair of running shoes that you're dying to try out (Newtons!) but aren't supposed to run for ~2 weeks post-Ironman.
#10 - would it really be that bad if I took an easy, short run in my new shoes this week? -AND- Did I really do Ironman Louisville on Sunday?! -AND- I really don't feel like being at work right now. I'd rather look for IM Louisville related articles/race reports, discussion threads, and catch up on blog reading/writing.
#10: I wonder how my long 16M run is going to go tomorrow. It's the furthest I will have ever run and I'm a little nervous about it!
Big test before I leave Friday afternoon, working extra at the office, piles of laundry and a dirty stinky dog await me at home today, and I'm going to start my half-mary training next week.
::sigh:: I feel better!
New giveaway at my place!
Creativity collage sounds like a wonderful idea. I might try it, which would be another thing keeping me from having a clean house.
Cool post.
#7. UGH.
Please pick me!!!! :) :)
Love the collage...
Now, stop telling everyone about your giveaway! ;)
This was such a fun post! Holy cow did you score with Marcia's giveaway!
Summer is over....I am sort of torn, I am sad and I am also looking forward to a new season:)
Take care Lady!
And August did go by way too fast...
Congrats on that swag!
