About 6 months ago, I realized that I needed a better balance and a hobby that did not require physical activity, so I took improv classes again. It was just what I needed and I had a blast at the SAK Graduation Show. I hope to take classes next time they offer masters classes and will be sure to post about them here.
Other things that I enjoy doing when I am not training, which I need to remember to do more often, include: reading, bike hashing, run hashing, geocaching, camping, and photography. I also used to be an avid swing dancer, going 3-5 times a week, when I was in my 20s. That is how Jason and I first got to know each other because we were dance partners. We go occasionally, but I really want to start doing it more regularly. It's a great workout and so much fun. We're planning to go the UCF Valentine's Dance tonight! I'm excited! :)
In my 101 Things in 1001 Days list I outlined several adventures that I'd like to try that have nothing to do with training or running. Here's the list:
- dine in the dark (it's an actual restaurant where you dine in complete darkness)
- do a corn maze
- get SCUBA diving license
- go cross-country skiing
- go fishing
- go hang gliding
- go on a real primitive camping trip (where we have to hike or canoe to the site with our gear)
- go on a yoga retreat (with Chaz from YOGAmazing)
- go sailing
- go shark cage diving
- ride in a hot air balloon
- try a float tank
- go on a road trip with no pre-planned destination
- visit 5 new states
- visit a new continent
I'll keep you posted if I do any of those and will be sure to write all about it here.

I love the story of how you and Jason met - swing dancing -so cool. I have a big list of adventures I'm wanting to do as well (on 43 things.com) , I think it's great to keep them written down and motivates you to accomplish them! I've ridden in a hot air balloon at the Albequerque Balloon Festival and highly recommend it.
