If I can run 5 miles in a row, why can you still park a car in the shadow of my ass!

58 minutes and 58 seconds

that's how long it takes this turtle to run 4 miles on a treadmill.......And it wasn't pretty! Me and my friend, Angie, took a trip to Endurance House in madison to get our free 1/2 marathon vouchers with purchase of NEW shoes today. I guess now I am committed...yikes! At least I got new shoes :)

Me and running don't always get along.....

I don't think my treadmill is very accurate. I ran 3 miles in 50 minutes.....I'm pretty sure I can do it faster than that but whatever. The first mile-not that good, second mile felt awesome, third mile- mind over matter....... It's a far cry from a 1/2 marathon. Tomorrow i'm taking off to do some things around the house. jacob and taylor both working on stenciling projects in their rooms I want to help them with. I'll try to post pics when they are done....

Good thing I wasn't wearing corderoy

30 minutes on the treadmill, again. I could have gone farther, but my thighs were chaffed. Mental note- do not run in the purple shorts EVER again......unless my thighs get smaller :) Tomorrow rest and Saturday a long run. I may have to grease up with something for that one.

Any suggestions for fast running music? I find myself skipping past the majority of jeff's country and slow songs. I'm probably skipping past songs more than actually listening to music.
