It doesn't help that I'm a little bored with running, which makes BLOGGING about running fall even farther down the list!
We tackled 9 miles, and while it wasn't as good as the 8 mile run, I'd say that's mostly because I didn't sleep enough the night before. This past week was an "off" week (meaning our regular Tuesday / Thursday 3 mile runs and then a 4 mile on Saturday) in preparation for this Saturday's 10 mile run. It's a testament to how far I've come that I'm not freaking out about it - what's one more mile? Of course, the next week is 12 miles and that sounds a little daunting, but I'm sure we'll do great.
I made it through The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, but it wasn't quite doing it for me. So I've switched over to some really hard-hitting literature: The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants. Try not to hurt yourself laughing at me.
Also, after a less-than-thorough and really not scientific search, I've decided that I (along with my running partners / sis-in-laws) prefer Clif Shot Bloks in strawberry as our "performance food" of choice. Next task? Finding some (gulp) running shorts. Ugh.

I was starting to wonder if you'd ever write on your blog again :)
Sam has always been a fan of Goo. Frankly, anything called "Goo" has me worried...
You should try some of Shannon Hale's books. I think both Goose Girl and Princess Academy have audio versions.
Hang in there, I'm so proud of you!
Come on fess up, you always put on those hot pink short running shorts when no one is around!
Well now I have us a whole bunch of gel blocks but it doesn't seem to be motivating me for tomorrow...wow, I can't wait until its over and we can go back to normal exercise.
