I'm definitely loving the amount of daylight too and at some point in this work from home situation I will be out earlier in the morning rather than later in the day! (I know I keep saying that!). April was definitely better than March and it inspired me to try with some May goals and maybe even get to the WRD in time! runlaugheatpiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09233445490233555647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5884362622170497685.post-62726730905512509532020-05-04T22:03:19.034-05:002020-05-04T22:03:19.034-05:00I am actually impressed with the miles/hours you w...I am actually impressed with the miles/hours you walk each week. I am not much of a walker. I get bored. I guess that is how people feel when they run on the treadmill. :-) It felt like Spring this weekend but now we are back to Fall but slightly colder. I am excited for May. Nothing in particular but knowing that we're one month closer to hopefully things start to feel normal again. Maybe soon?Zenaida Arroyohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18137949290555784656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5884362622170497685.post-8735726123303467312020-05-04T15:10:01.209-05:002020-05-04T15:10:01.209-05:00You had another great week!
