AUGUST COMES IN BRINGING SOME RAIN


After having a very dry month of July the fist day of August has already brought some much needed rain to the Heights. All I can say is this summer is really flying by, where did July go, just think school will be starting back up in about 30 days or so. I think I am going to have to put a sweatshirt on this morning when I go running, it is 66 outside and its cloudy. Elliott Sadler won yesterdays Nascar truck race at Pocono ending winless streak that went all the way back to September of 2004, Sadler held off Kahne for the win. Kyle Busch won last nights Nationwide race at Iowa, the Sprint Cup series will race at Pocono today. As I wrote todays entry to the blog I was getting eat alive by a mosquito thats in the house.

Walking is not as effective as running
Sure, you'll burn about twice as many calories running for 30 minutes than walking for 30 minutes. But if a runner and a walker cover the same distance, they burn about the same number of calories. So if you're willing to take the 'slow route,' you'll likely lose just as much weight. In fact, studies have proved that how long you exercise matters more than how hard you exercise.

Worry never robs tomorrow of its sorrow, it only saps today of its joy. -Leo Buscaglia
