It’s a little humid in Nebraska today.

3.5 miles this morning. Average pace of 11:24. 

I usually don’t like race t-shirts. Especially grey ones. There are many reasons, the first being that t-shirt manufacturers don’t seem to believe that you can be small on top and tall. So when I get my small or medium women’s size tech shirt it is usually too short in length. It fits just fine everywhere else, it just makes me feel like my stomach is going to show.

But this one from the Manitoba Half Marathon a couple weeks ago is great. It’s long enough and it actually fits! However, it is grey. And grey shows how much I sweat. And I sweat a lot. Especially when the humidity is high at 6:30 in the morning! 

I did not want to get up and run this morning. But, as always, I am glad I did. It’s a great way to wake up and get the blood pumping!

Have a great Thursday friends!

Life is made up of such random moments.

Sometimes, working at a TV station has its perks. When I got into work today I was told there were some tickets for the Cirque de Soleil Michael Jackson show tonight that hadn’t been picked up by the winners yet. If it was still that way at 5:30 I could have a pair.

My friend Alisa and I went, and had a blast! Those performers are amazing!!

And to think, my plans for the evening originally involved a bike ride and TV time.

This wins!

Question of the Day

If you could go back, and completely change your life by choosing a different path than the one you currently took, would you? Even if it made you a different person than you are today?

Had this conversation with a friend the other day. Really made me think. I’m curious as to what your answers would be.

Monday Musings

  • I got up and ran 5 miles before work this morning. I did not let myself walk from 2 on. It is amazing how invincible you feel when you do that! Walking is always part of my runs. Running almost all of it felt good.
  • For whatever reason, whenever I run Half Marathons, I gain 5 pounds. Happened again with Manitoba. I hate vacation weight gain too. Grrr. Water weight is stupid.
  • I really hope I don’t gain another 5 pounds next week during the Brownville Half! Gah! That would not be cool.
  • I got a call from a Headhunter last week. He wants me to move to Oklahoma City and be the Executive Producer for for the Morning show for a TV station there. He promised it would double my salary. Gives a girl something to think about.
  • I just saw a Back To School commercial. Are you even serious right now? It’s JUNE! Summer JUST started! Give me a break.

Have a great week friends!
