    @WandaVaughn you're doing great! Priorities!

    I used to pretend I was gonna catch a giant gar. I'd watch all these crazy youtube videos about it when the kids were like four and seven years old. We'd get all this weird junk crap and make a lure and a bobber and go sit for hours.

    I never did catch a gar, so I am happy you caught some fish. :)

    As for international shipping @polskagirl01 - I'll bet we can come up with enough where it's not an issue? I don't know how much international shipping is, so again with the promises. The same would go for @Scott6255 and @Avidkeo I think, right?

    @Scott6255 what time do you get up to run? I cannot imagine running before work and getting the kids and myself off to school. I think my life would be better, but a 4am wake up time just sounds like two extra hours of drinking coffee :D Friend of mine asked me this weekend, "What would you change about your life, if you could change anything?" My answer was, I kid you not, "I'd wake up at 4am to run and still also run in the evenings, just shorter." That makes my life sound pretty dang good, right? Plus, it's something i COULD actually change if I'd actually just DO it.

    I'm in Texas...I know some people think of us as a separate country, but as far as I know we still qualify for USA domestic shipping ;)

    I get up at around 3:30am to run. Mostly because it takes me like an hour to wake up and get coffee, small breakfast, dress, and warm-up. And because I like to get in to work by about 6:00am.

    I’ll pass on the medal - as lovely an idea as it is and as awesome a design as it is - but with the exchange rate and International shipping, this will end up costing me quite a lot and I think Pastor Vincent would agree I’d be better to use this cash to enter another race!

    This, so much this.

    However I am willing to contribute towards one for his family.
