It's official...
I've signed up for my first half marathon...and I optimistically say first...'as if' there might ever be a second? I guess we'll see! A year ago I would have never run a mile let alone 13+. See what changes happen in a year? Now I 'get' to keep training after the hood to coast relay so that I'm prepared to run this…

Two new PR's to celebrate
New Mile PR: 8:06 and PR for the four miles was 8:45/mile. Finally got a full 8 hours sleep last night so I feel this really helped as my last run on this same route was 9:14/mile. I wasn't really out to try for these either so I'm a little shocked....I was really cold this morning and was just trying to "get warm". It…

Scale related happy dance...a bit rambling too!
I suppose I should wait till I lose one more pound to do the happy dance...when I'm at an even 20 lbs down. But I'm just to excited as I've lost MORE then 10% of my "starting MPF" body weight. I see a couple posters down was struggling without seeing results...well here's MY story. March 2011 I decided to get…

Yoga anyone?
I've heard it's great for your flexability....I don't see myself attending any classes and was looking into possibly getting an "app for that" Anyone use a yoga app on thier iphone/ipad/itouch?? Or have you tried one that I should steer clear of? The reason I'm not interested in attending classes are they aren't offered at…

Hump Day's half over...
With Wicked being busy and not assigning new challenges...what are ya'll doing today? A repeat of yesterday? I'm lazy, thus I like to follow rather then lead, and I just noticed I'm not doing anything without a leader telling me to do so.... My legs are killing me, so I will be forgoing any legs today, but I think I'll be…

Runners, question for you....
What equipment do you have to make your (ipod/iphone/music) device water resistant while you run in the rain? Can ear buds hold up also to rain? I've been doing the Couch to five K with my iphone and the rain just returned to the pac nw and I didn't previously give thought to what I'm going to do now! Any advice?
