Fargo Half-Marathon

I’m registered.

Brooke and I are running it and doing the Go Far Challenge. That means a 5k Friday night and half Marathon on Saturday morning. Easy-peasy and totally doable. In fact, I’m fairly confident I could run a half marathon tomorrow if you told me to. I ran 10 miles on Thursday and Monday. 3.1 more is no biggie.

Any other Tumblrs want to come and run with us?

I plan on running the Lincoln half-marathon on May 5th as well. That one should be great! Its my third Lincoln half and 2nd running with my tumblrs! Lindsay and I are going to do the Half, and Steph and Holli are going to kill their first Full Marathons.

In other news, I have so much Christmas shopping left to do its not even funny. Amazon prime, you are my friend. Thank goodness for free 3 day shipping. I’m being such a scrooge this holiday season, and I hate that. I need to get myself in gear and get it done.

Hope you all have a wonderful day friends!

Creative Christmas cookie frosting.

I went for a run before this happened. Its chilly here, only 40°, but i got 1.5 miles in before the cold got to be too much. It’s something at least!

Strange fact about me: i like to bake and frost the cookies, but i don’t like to eat them. I’m not much of a cookie fan. I don’t even like to eat desserts i make, not even cookies. But i like to eat desserts (cookies not included) that other people make!

Merry Christmas Eve!

What better way to begin a holiday weekend than with a 5 mile run? I felt like I could run forever! Its the most I’ve run in a while, generally I only get about 3 miles in each day. In the past 4 days I’ve hit 15 miles for the week…is it crazy that I’m contemplating getting up early before church and pounding out a few miles before the festivities begin?

Some say obsessed, I say dedicated.

My two very best friends and I are getting together in a few minutes to exchange gifts and watch our favorite Christmas movie; “A Muppet Christmas Carol”. Its one of my favorite things about Christmas Eve.

I hope each and every one of you have a joyous Christmas and enjoy the time with your friends and family! Merry Christmas Friends! 🙂
