Read All About It

I have been a book lover from the time I was a little girl. I treasured walks to the library with my mother. I excelled in school and pursued my love of words with Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in English. Now, as a high school English teacher, my hobby is my vocation. During the school year, I reread classics that I am teaching. During breaks and summer vacation, I pore through current bestsellers and old favorites. My newest hobby is running. I have always envied runners who can trek out for a few miles hardly breaking a sweat. For the past seven weeks, I have been following a 5K training program. I am up to two miles straight and I love it! I have lost 22 pounds and feel better than I have in years. My mind is clear and my stress levels are in control. I plan to run in a 5K in a nearby city in a few months and hope to pursue longer distances in the future.
