Progress report, we've now started Week 2 of the Couch to 5k Program!
Lyss is a great runner! She's so freakin fast and determined.
We are going way faster than I ever did when I started this thing.
I'm glad I can already run a little or I'd be eating her dust.
Last night we were on our cool down walk back to the car when Lyss spotted this turtle!
The Turtle's butt was kind of in a hole so we thought, "OMG IT'S A LADY TURTLE AND WE ARE GOING TO WATCH HER LAY EGGS!"

Lady Turtle was not amused by the spectators. |

Here's her butt in the hole. |
We were very concerned for her, we kind of hoped she wasn't laying eggs because she was barely off the trail! And in a very high traffic spot on the trail.
We watched her for awhile, and after I googled it to find out that it could take FOUR HOURS for her to lay her eggs we decided our legs hurt so we were going to keep moving.
But of course curiosity got the better of us and we doubled back.
When we came back she had abandoned her hole, and moved several feet up the trail towards us.

The hole. |

The circle is where the turtle was, in conjunction with where her hole was. She really booked it our of there. |
So after she left her spot we thought, "Ah what the hell."
And got our prerequisite nature picture with her.
Thanks Lady Turtle.
