Today I burned nearly 50 calories just by leaving a store and walking through the parking lot to my car. How do I know this? Well I will tell you! Thanks to my most amazing, sweet, and wonderful boyfriend, I am now the very excited and proud owner of a Garmin Forerunner 305!!!! Believe me, I squealed with excitement!! I promised myself that I would not run until Christmas day to make sure my knees were alright, but I am finding every other excuse in the world to test it out! (For example, I burned 4 calories walking from P.F. Chang's to the car.) Tomorrow will be my very first run. I CANNOT WAIT!!! I will warn you now, you will read about this tomorrow. LOL.
I've also added some picture of me and my "baby" (my golden retriever). He's the best dog in the world!!! Oh and I also included a picture of my running Christmas ornaments. I finally ordered the two I said I wanted, and my mom had the other ornament made for me. I am "The Queen of Running Land"! Haha!
I hope you all have a very lovely Christmas!
Sweet present! You're going to love that Garmin; I haven't run without mine since the day I got it.
ReplyDeleteCute pictures with the dog, I've really been wanting one lately, especially after being home with mine!
Merry Christmas, Jes!
Cute ornaments, and you'll love the Garmin. Its bulk takes a little getting used to, but otherwise, it's awesome.
ReplyDeleteI hope you had a great Christmas!! My Gawdd Garmin looks HUGE on you. You're such a tiny thing ;-)
ReplyDeleteHow exciting! I am going go get one tomorrow I think. My wonderful boyfriend gave me cash. Weird, I know. But I am going to get a Garmin with it! Is it hard to use? I can barely set my watch! I'm scared, yet excited at the same time.
ReplyDeleteYou do realize that you may have burned 4 calories walking from PF Changs to the car but prior to that you most likely took in 800-1500 hee hee. I couldnt resist. I want a watch like that. Are you happy that I have finally read a full blog of yours. Merry late Xmas!
