All Unique yet Bound by Commonality

For the 44 today, I did a variation on a squat jump – a criss-cross squat jump.

(Not sure why I feel the need to post the video – I always look like a total goof!!!  But, that’s pretty much me all the time so…..)  Anyway, you can tell that the challenge of this move is to stay low while jumping your feet out then crossed – a quick move but also effective!

I did a nice easy 6 mile run today at 1.5% incline and 8:23 pace.  5 run days in 1 week!!  This next week will have fewer days of running because I have a mega run on Friday!!!

Because I’m a people watcher, yesterday at Day 1 of the Bridal Fair (fixing to head back for Day 2) it was so interesting to observe the differences in the brides.

DSCN0134The future brides were – 

  • young (one couple that stopped at our both was around 18 or 19)
  • older
  • slim
  • round
  • happy
  • frazzled
  • organized
  • absolutely no clue what they were doing
  • pregnant
  • mothers
  • dressed up
  • wearing PJs (yep saw some that came out in lounge pants)

But watching all of them as they made their way through the masses,  I truly think that no matter what they looked like or had on or who they had with them the thing that united all of them was the fact that they all have a special day coming up!

Some of them don’t know yet when that day will be and others have set dates that are years away (not kidding – a couple of the brides aren’t getting married for several years) but they all have the excitement of knowing that there is someone special in their life who wants to build a future with them.

DSCN0136You can see that it was rather crowded – this was the case for big chunks of the day.  

So, today we will head  back and there will be more people watching and appreciating the uniqueness of each bride that we talk to – each story will be different but all of them will include LOVE!!!
