Merry Chrstmas!


Hope that Santa was good to every one and it warms up enough to go for a run!

More than an attitude...

I bet Ninjas don't get sick 4 days before Christmas! Why is it that when you have the least amount of time is when you catch something that lays you flat out. I talked with Sarah last night at about 5 and by 7:30 I was in bed feeling like I was at death's door. So, now I am channeling my inner Ninja in hopes that I can kick this craps ASS!

I love the spirit of runners!

We had another stellar run at Lindbergh today. Thank you to Mike & Mike for putting up with the girls this morning.

While we were running two ladies, who looked like pretty serious runners, saw that we were running in intervals and asked us what we were training for. We shared with them that we were going to run the Fargo Half-Marathon and we were trying to increase our time and distance. One of the ladies shared that they both had run the San Francisco Marathon in 4 1/2 hours, we offered congratulations to both of them. One of the ladies said that she was going to start running with some kids and was looking for a way to help them train. Sarah and I shared how we started and that it is sooo much easier on our bodies. I love the fact that runners want to help each other succeed and we are not afraid to share our "secrets".

The official breakfast spot has been decided (drum roll please)
The Good Day Cafe!!!
They have very good bloody marys & mimosas and a scrumptious crab cake benedict!

Have a great week

Mental Running

This past week I did not lace up my shoes to run once. I wish that I could say that I got to take a nap everyday, my house is spotless, all of my Christmas gifts are bought and wrapped, but I can't. What is it about this time of year that sucks every spare minute of everyday? That is the million dollar question.

I did get to go away this past weekend and do some mental running (a.k.a scrapbooking). Yes, I am one of those ladies. I am a really creative person and my brain need that kind of mental running. After a day or even a few hours of mental running seems to set things in my world right.

I am looking forward to running in the snow tonight!
