THE "I" LIST

I am: Glad I have the ability to run.

I want: World Peace. Really...

I hate: Peas.

I miss: My mom.

I fear: Fear itself.

I wonder: When we'll actually make the big move to the "new" old house.

I regret: nothing.

I am not: great at math.

I dance: if everyone else is dancing....

I sing: best when I've had a couple of margaritas.

I cry: When someone in my family gets hurt.

I am not always: orderly, but I'm not a slob, either.

I make with my hands: really cool shadows on the wall.

I write: with my right hand.

I confuse: how to get around the new neighborhood.

I need: a deep tissue massage.

I should: see about finishing my bachelors degree.

I start: the coffee maker every morning.

I finish: doing most everything I set out to do.

Now it's my turn to tag someone... I tag Tom

The carb-loading has begun...

I'm getting anxious, plus I'm already feeling a little bloated from the carbs... I checked out the route video last night, just to get a refresher... Click HERE (high bandwith) or HERE (low bandwith)to see the video route. My favorite part of the run was around miles 10, 11,12... running down the 163...

Tomorrow Michael and I will attend the expo to pick up our race numbers and, perhaps, buy an new running hat.

Have a great weekend!


Peace

All Set!

I spent yesterday at the "new" old house. I spent most of my time gardening... I planted all of my seedlings that I started in 6 packs... I'm gonna have a lot of tomatoes, squash, cucumbers and carrots. Bell peppers, cilantro, rosemary, and habanero chilies are still to come... I thought I sprayed the sunscreen on well enough but I have some sunburn on my neck and the back of my arms...


Today I made my way to Road Runner Sports and picked up a case of tangerine Powergels, Clif Shots and Clif Shot Blocks. I still couldn't find Accell-gels locally (went to 6 different places) and I waited too long to get them on the net... I did okay with the Clif products, even though they don't have protein. RRS opened a clearance center in the same complex, and I checked that out, too. I found my innersoles for $10. They had my discontinued Asics, but they still weren't marked down enough yet. I bought my last pair on sale and it was much less than the clearance price. Oh well...


Now I'm figuring out a new weight training program, since I won't be running as much, although I am keeping half marathon training in mind, but that's do-able.
