Time for summer.

Spring is finally here and it feels great. I started running again. In fact I have been since Easter which was about a little over five weeks ago. I have been doing great and have been running almost every other day with a few breaks in between due to my knee hurting. My goal is to just keep going and maybe do a race one day. One of my friends in school asked me if I wanted to participate in this years discrict race that is taking place this weekend but I passed since I don’t feel quite ready for it yet. The Army is having a 5k fun-run next weekend though which I might participate in. We’ll see.

Since my last post it feels like time is picking up again and days are finally starting to go by a little faster. Collin and I have been sending emails to each other a lot but phone calls have been very limited. In fact, we only had the chance to talk twice within the passed three weeks. But receiving emails almost every day makes up for it and it is not as bad as it sounds. We have been discussing about investing into a couple road bikes. Collin’s Cannondale road bike is almost 10 years old and it is time for a new one. And since I like roadbiking too, we are thinking of getting two new ones. The only problem is the price. We want a good one – preferrably Cannondale bikes again - which means paying $1000 or more a piece. I have been looking into a few and there are only three models that we could actually afford ranging from $1000 to $1350 per bike (note: the most expensive one is $9999 and looks amazing).

So we’ll see how much we can save up. It would be awesome for this summer and I could get into roadbiking shape until Collin comes home and then we could go on rides together.
