Short-Term Running Goals:

Maybe run a few more marathons?? Stay healthy, motivated and consistent.  Races are fun, but unlike the hokey pokey, its not what its all about for me.  Its about health, sanity and feeling great about myself bc I can call myself a runner. :)

I didn't know how far I was going to go today. I was going off of feel. When I got to the light at NC I saw a girl wearing hot pink with blonde hair turn up NC on the other side of the street. She got pretty far ahead of me by the time my light changed. At least I thought. I didn't think I would catch her, nor was I trying to. But I actually ended up catching up to her and then passing her. She drafted off of me the rest of the way up to the stop sign. I never turned around to look at her but I could hear her breathing over my shoulder even with my music on. You would think it would be annoying but I actually appreciated it bc It gave me motivation to step it up and stay ahead of her. When we got to the stop sign, I turned left and she continued on straight. Bye bye hot pink. Then I ran down WillowHills and around the hood back home. Good Times.

hot pink? newcastle? I can't believe you didn't recognize me! I guess you haven't seen my new hair either. I wondered who that was kicking butt up NC!

Stacie I know that wasn't you. Two reasons.

1. You would have spanked my butt when you blew past me

2. You would have never let me win.
