Running and Breaking Dawn

So I went for a run yesterday, well I usually run for about 2 minutes then I walk a little before I start running again. It turned out to be 45 Minutes, not bad at all.

Last night I realized that my running endurance is getting a little bit better, I could run longer before resting and walking. That is quite good and I am quite proud of myself especially since I never have been much of a runner growing up and until just recently.

I must admit that it hurts my legs still but nonetheless feels pretty good. I also did some Wii active afterwards. Yes, I know I may be nuts. ;) I decided to try the 30 challenge thing and I am set to stick to this for the entire 30 days without missing a day. So far it is pretty good, getting better with the exercise.

I love Wii active, I believe it is better than the Wii fit since it feels as if you would go to a gym and have a personal trainer set up a workout program for you and the set of exercises changes every day to help you work every part of your body rather than simply doing just one type of exercise.

I love the fact that there is a journal and nutrition feature, where you can enter what you eat and it lets you know how much calories, I think since I have yet to explore this feature in depth.

Don't get me wrong Wii fit is still pretty awesome, and I will eventually get back to the yoga, I just prefer to spend as much time outside as possible especially since it has been raining so much, when I see the sun I want to enjoy every minute of it.

I came back and read more of the fourth novel of the twilight saga: Breaking dawn.
I have to say I do love the story, I wasn't entirely certain I loved it before since it is more about the love story and wished it was darker, but it is supposed to be a love story between vampire and human.

I think I have been trying to compare it to Harry Potter, which I should not, it is a totally different story and of course nothing to me will compare to Harry Potter but it doesn't mean other series are not well written. I still prefer JK Rowling's writting style but the twilight saga isn't so bad. The first movie however seemed too teenish but I have to admit it is after all a teen series. Who knows perhaps the next movie might have more of a darker feel to it.

I need to finish this book, there are so many books I want to read I don't even know where to start.

I am also reading a tiny little book I found at this old book store that rarely ever is open. Basically you have to pass by and check to see if it is open. It is called: the return of the little prince I believe. The sequel to "Le petit prince". I had no idea there was a sequel to this book so when I found it I absolutely had to get it, and so far I love this story, there is so much more to it than a kid's story.

As september approaches, the sequel to the Hunger Games should be out soon: Catching FIre. I cannot wait. This means another book I need to put on my list to read. And I believe Dan Brown will have a new book called the lost symbol if I am not mistaking coming out during september as well.

Also at the end of August, there is the gatineau balloon festival that I absolutely cannot miss since Eric Lapointe is back. I need my dose of his music, it is like a drug I tell you. lol. He was in rehab last summer and cancelled almost all his shows, I usually see him at least once in the summer and I could not last year so now I NEED to go. Can't wait for the end of august and at the same time it means summer is over, which is a little depressing especially since we had a pretty crappy one, with way too much rain. Hopefully fall could be a little better with less rain and a little sun, I need my dose of sunny days otherwise winter will seem longer.

I have an idea for a video, I wrote a little script as well, I just need to film and edit it. It has been a while since I uploaded anything on my youtube channel. Sadly. :(

Well I supposed that is it for this update.

See you soon I hope.
