I guess the little ticky-tack things I come up with in my mind are no longer good enough when my scheduled running days come, sheesh.

    Seriously...I have no excuses for not running. If I don't do my scheduled runs, it is just pure lazy on my part.

    Holy crap! That's incredible! When I was 39 weeks pregnant, I barely felt like walking to the kitchen to get a glass of water! People never cease to amaze me!

    I love this line in the movie Dodgeball with Lance Armstrong... http://youtu.be/jGtfpzT4Lqw

    Lance Armstrong: Quit? You know, once I was thinking of quitting when I was diagnosed with brain, lung and testicular cancer all at the same time. But with the love and support of my friends and family, I got back on the bike and won the Tour de France five times in a row. But I'm sure you have a good reason to quit. So what are you dying of that's keeping you from the finals?
