Because Because Because Because I said so...



William Tell Overture for Mom's

Hannah and I laughed over this today.

++++++++++++

In running news, I was playing with my ipod this morning when I was passed by what sounded like galloping horses. It turned out to be 2 army guys. I am so slow.... I may have been faster than the speed-walking woman, but she was going the other way, so it's hard to tell.

It was really humid early this morning, and I was sweating so much there were drops of salty wetness dripping off my elbows. Ew.

And my hair was getting so puffy in the moist air that I could feel my ponytail swishing between the backs of my arms.

I usually worry about chub-rub, and spend a lot of my run checking to make sure my shorts are not creeping up. I have to admit, I was a teeny big gleeful when I saw a strong, fast, man having that same trouble!

Next week is Fall Break, so I will get to sleep in and run AFTER p.t. That will be nice.

Yes I'm first! One of the benefits of getting up early.

That was funny but I really have no idea what she is singing about my teenagers are perfect;)

Funny stuff. Great minds think alike -- I put the same thing on my blog yesterday.

Way to go with the running! You are my running idol. :o)

LOL about the galloping horses!

Every day when I read your blog I think "I'll get up and run tomorrow..." and then I don't think that again until after I read your blog the next day.
