Off to party
So I was watching the Today show this morning, and they were talking about how Americans eat really unhealthy food and all that stuff, and how their favorite items at restaurants are burgers and fries... And I said, that's right! It is my special birthday bash day, and I certainly will eat a burger! However, I also said to myself that I need to stop eating out so much and in general go easy on the burgers and fries. But that is another topic.
Anyway yesterday morning I ran 7 miles with the cows in Arkansas. Not too exciting. Sweated like a crazy woman. Blah blah. Came home, which was nice. Went to dinner with my parents which was very, very nice! We had a great time.
This morning I had a zillion things to do. I met my friend M. for a run out at Teller Farms (the Tank Run if you have read Running with the Buffaloes). We intended to run 7-8 miles but we were going so fast that we were at the 4.5 mile point before I knew it! So we turned around there and ran back. Our total time was 1:14.55, which is pretty fast for that course, which is quite hilly. M. was somewhat broken afterwards but I think this run gave him lots of confidence going into the Bolder Boulder. I think he will do great!
Anyway after that I packed for a long time, ate a sandwich, took a shower, and now we are off to hang out with a surprisingly large amount of people for my birthday! I think it will be a great time.
Thanks for all the birthday wishes!
