JUST CALL ME SCARDY CAT

Where do the days go!!! We are already in fall and heading toward winter. I must say I am not a cold weather person and exercising in the cold will be a true test of my desire to achieve my goal!! This weekend we had a 9 mile walk. We were up, and it was still dark. What are we bats??? So we headed out at 6 a.m. and began are 9 miles on a dark unlit trail. Now as you know, as always, there are lots of scary shows and movies on TV, as we build up to Halloween night. So I would have to say my mind was in a scary movie kind of mind set. So as we began our walk down the dark trail, I keep hearing things moving in the brush. Laurie and I were talking, but I must admit I had one ear intently listening for anything scary moving in the bushes. I am thinking, "why do I not own a can of mace!!" The next thing I know something jumps in the air and right into a bush. My reaction was to almost jump into Laurie's arms and make her carry me all the way back to the car. Thought I would help her out with her strength training...NOT!!! So this Halloween, I saved a few bucks, and stayed with my workout routine. Instead of paying to go to the haunted corn maze, I just kept with my normal workout routine, add one dark trail, and "poof" my dose of scare for the holiday season!!
