So I'm full of nervous energy lately. I'm still debating 5Ks and such. I emailed a girl I worked with all the links to the 5Ks and she's thinking about running the Pasadena Marathon and hinted heavily that I could do the half marathon.
That got me thinking, "Can I do a half marathon? 3 miles was tough last night and the half is 13.1 miles." On the plus side the Pasadena Marathon is two weeks before Thanksgiving - a week before I fly home to be with the folks. And for an additional thirty bucks I can get a pre-printed sports T with my number on it and my name or motto. (hmmmm, motto? See Me Run... Never say Never ... weight-loss junkie ....)
If I decide to do this, I have, as of today, 80 days to train. Which is plenty of time. It's sixty bucks if I register by Monday and seventy-five after. I think I might just be crazy enough to sign up for a half marathon... it'll also show me if I can do a full marathon on March 1st - the Los Angeles Marathon that my childhood friend is gonna fly out for.
If only my lungs were stronger. I should start looking into homeopathic remedies for weak lungs.
On another note:
TBD called me on Monday night to let me know that he was almost to the desert and out of cell service. I told him to have fun and to relax. I said, "do anything you want."
"Anything I want?"
I responded coyly, "Well, NOT anything you want. But lots of other things. Go spin some fire, you hot sexy man"
"Okay, I won't do anything I want," he chuckled back. "I'll see you after labor day."

isn't he HOT?!
Somethings gotta give, and it will, someday...
