Oh Just Gabbin': 5K

It's amazing how the the human mind does not process the the fact

I used the the word "the" twice each time in this sentence.

Heads up... bad language in the following video....

This made me laugh..... haha... kinda stupid but funny.

I ran my first 5K Friday, Oct 29th... it was the Ovarian Cancer Midnight 5K at UNCW.

Ryan, Joe, Aaron & Jeff ran it with me... :) Thanks guys for coming!

-Not the clearest pictures, but you 'get the picture' ha!-

I really loved it. I see a lot of races in my future and hope to

really get on it and do better and better :) I feel silly for wondering

why Pat & Elisabeth run marathons all the time. They give you like

a high! But it's like a good/healthy high! Makes you feel good.

I feel like if I actually TRAINED instead of just showing up and running

that it would be even more intense... because you work and work at

something and then you DO it, and then once you've finished, you feel

so accomplished! I still felt accomplished even though I didn't 'train'

because I went out there and DID IT. I completed it... and I saw a TON

of boys follow in BEHIND me :)

Is it weird that I am FARRRR more competitive when it comes to

guys than girls? Maybe it's from growing up with tons of boys and

being a "tomboy" and closet "girly girl" haha... if you could describe

me in a cartoon drawing it would be a little girl in a karate uniform

wearing heels... with a big doggie on a leash...

a purse in one hand and pair of sneaks in the other :)

oh and my bathingsuit on underneath :) hehe.....

Pre Race Meal

^I listened to this and had a sweet potato a couple hours before^

I did my 2nd 5K Sunday, Nov 7th... I did the 2010 NC Battleship.

Let's just say it was COLD but I'm glad I did it. :)

My lungs are NOT used to the cold weather... after the race

for the next like 36 hours all I did was sneeze... like nonstop. arg.

I stayed the night at Ryan's Saturday night and brought my

sweet potato with me to make Sunday morning, but after

being nauseous all day Saturday and not wanting to eat ANYthing

I could barely force down 1/2 of my sweet potato. blah.

Races coming up!

Oh my goodness. Sunday after the race, AND A NAP...

we watched Toy Story 3... and he said I would cry... but

OMG. SO funny and SOOOO sad. I boohoo'd for sure.

Sunday night when Ryan went to the rink, I took Kane with me so I could get him to Stan, but I ended up having him over night (which I loved) hehe... made me want a dog of my own EVEN more. Kane is such a great dog though. Monday after doing the loop with him and cleaning out my car (where he went out and did it with me hehe) I didn't even have to like tell him to not go in the road or like, to not run off... he was so good. AH LOVE IT! :) But anyways, I took him with me to work and the kids LOVED him!

haha... at first Kane wasn't too excited about the new friends :)

Sonja and Charlie kinda scared him at first haha aw

he kept backing up against me like omg, get them away haha

haha... but as you can tell by this picture, he fell in love with them :)

He cried while tellin me how he pictured us eating hotdogs on the beach together.

(919):All I know is that it's pretty damn mean to put a glass wall in a bar.

(408): I just need to know if he's either really genuine about

being in my life or being in my vagina.

(517): I would bitch about being this hungover,

but honestly im just happy to be alive after this weekend.

We're all a little in the dark when it comes to love.

Sometimes you have to run away from it to see it clearly

& sometimes you have to come home to try it again.

Instead of going grocery shopping I might dress up, go trick or treating

and ask for everything I need; paper towels, toothpaste, coffee.

^Caroline this morning eating breakfast!

I just love her cup, don't you?

Her parents are the ones that really sparked my interest in running

and taking it from just plain "exercise" to something that I just TRULY enjoy.

Thankful for that.

Last night I ran the loop, and I've been wearing my 5 fingers

Click here if you don't know what 5 fingers are... :)

well... my ankles have been KILLING me so I've been trying to not push it so hard, and taking "rest days" but I don't want to end up turning everyday into a "rest day" even though even on my rest days I have been working out. Luckily I have an eliptical IN my apartment (my birthday present to myself last year) and I can watch the shows I have recorded on DVR while I do it... instead of sitting on my behind... or I have been doing P90X, squats, etc... but I think I might start switching between my 5 fingers and my Brooks...

Pat Mulligan (Caroline's dad) that does marathons/races/triathlons etc. like constantly told me he thinks that I should limit myself to once a week in the 5 fingers. But I LOOOOOOOOOOVE my 5 fingers. They feel SO much better on my feet in every way, EXCEPT my ankles. Doing the loop last night I ran as much as I could on the grass/dirt beside the paved Wrightsville Beach Loop, but there is still alot of the loop that doesn't have grass/dirt beside it (down Lumina) but oh well. We'll see!
