Seven things about myself? Hmm! Let's see..
1. Last October, I couldn't run for 60 seconds without stopping. I've now completed the Couch to 5km program, and can run almost 7kms.This year in September I'm aiming to run the 12km City to Bay fun run in Adelaide. I still can't believe how far I've come!
2. I love to start projects, but I'm terrible at finishing them. This year, I'm going to make sure I finish all those poor, neglected projects that are stored in our spare room!
4. Chocolate is my vice. Hot chocolate in Winter, dark chocolate before bed, double choc ice cream with cookie dough from Cold Rock, flourless chocolate cake, any sort of chocolate! I can't resist it!
5. I've said this before, but I'm a TV fanatic. Even the theme for my 30th this year is TV characters. I love collecting TV series (no burnt copies, only originals thank you!) to display (and watch, of course!)
6. I absolutely adore the little school I work at. I sometimes feel like I'm a Jack of all trades when it comes to teaching as even though my method was Visual Arts, over my career I've taught Art, Ceramics, Photography, Textiles, Media Studies, English and I'll be doing Food and SOSE this year. Phew!
7. I always try to make sure that our house smells lovely. One of the first things I do each morning is to light scented candles- Citrus in Summer and Vanilla in Winter. It gives me an instant lift!
Make sure you check out the three blogs at the top of the post, and these 12 blogs that have captured my attention!

Your running inspires me so much! How's the prep for Cooking Classes going. I should attend as a student! xxx
ReplyDeleteAw, thanks Mez! I always hope that I can pass it on and inspire others! I've slacked off this week and haven't put as much effort into cooking, but I start work again on Tuesday so I'll have to do a lot of planning on the weekend!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations Rhi - I think your blog is beautiful too. I've been interested in the 'Couch to 5km' - a huge well done on your success! Is this something you made up or is there a website/trainer/programme you register with? After 2 babies I DESPERATELY need some inspiration and motivation to do something similar! Thanks for the blog links too, they are gorgeous.

Hi Carly, and thank you! The C25K is an actual program, and I found it to be perfect as it's interval training. Each podcast tells you when to walk and when to run and is set to really motivating music- you can find them here: http://www.ullreys.com/robert/Podcasts/podcasts/files/rss.xml
ReplyDeleteAnother great place to find motivation is the C25K facebook page here: http://www.facebook.com/#!/C25Kplan
Good luck! I highly recommend it, it's seriously changed my life!
Thank you so much Rhi - I'm going to give it a shot!!!
ReplyDeleteMy pleasure Carly, good luck!
