MCM 10k, here I come!!!
Today after school I dragged my butt over to the DC Armory to pick up my bib and goodie bag for the race and to poke around the Health and Fitness Expo a bit. The nice thing about these big races is that you get lots of stuff in your goodie bag! Tonight we have ( Read more... ) -
My left footsie.
So, after conferring with the fabulous ldy_brtt_ashley and doing a bit of research, it appears that the pain in my left foot, on the heel, is indeed my very first case of plantar fasciitis. I had to laugh as I read the description of people likely to have PF ( Read more... ) -
What day is this?

My day off was a good one!
I started my day off with a nice, comfortable run (3 miles). It was perfect out, nice and cool, there was a bit of a drizzle for a bit, but then it stopped. Had some great tunes going on, then my iPod died. So, for the end of the run I concentrated on a breathing pattern (something I've never really paid attention to previously). In for three, ( Read more... ) -
When you don't know whether to laugh or cry.
The fire alarm went off in the middle of my fourth grade class today. I knew immediately it wasn't a drill because the alarm in my actual trailer doesn't go off in a drill. Out we went in the cold and rain to stand and wait. The fire station is about 30 feet from our school, but still they got in the truck and drove over. Protocol I'm sure, but ( Read more... )
