This morning’s run was a major fail. First, it started to sprinkle as soon as I was ready to leave and then my knee started to hurt around 1.35 miles and I stopped running at two miles. Boo. It pretty much stops hurting as soon as I stopped running so I walked home fine. The only reason I went on…

Nine and Nine in Nine
First, a picture from my drive today… It was absolutely gorgeous in So Cal 🙂 Last night I was lamenting to Ben (yes, I lament – what, you don’t?) that I, after taking a few days off for my knee’s sake, want to get faster and fitter and thinner. I told him I found a half marathon in MD that…

Not Depressed
I think I have been living in a constant state of depression and didn’t even realize it! Because I am way too happy right now. I’m happy to be outside and not wearing five layers, see my dogs, smile, thaw out… I could go on 🙂 My mom faked me out with Greek yogurt in the fridge, I got excited…

Night night
I don’t know how I am keeping my eyes open right now! Suddenly out of nowhere my long day caught up with me and I am exhausted. I am currently typing from 10,000 feet in the air on my way to the John Wayne airport. Usually I’ve been flying into LAX or Long Beach, so let’s hope my mom remembers…

But, one waffle was a lot thicker and a little bigger around then the other! It resulted in one of them getting burnt in the toaster even though I cooked them for the same…

Ice, Ice Baby
Everyone was curious about my weird ice pack. Ha! I got it from Target a while back. It is actually made for icing and came in a row of four ice squares. I cut it in half so I have two of them. One side is flat and the other has the ice squares… Lunch was random handfuls of crackers…

Playing it by Knee
Bad news: My magic pill = New Shoes did not prevent my knee from hurting on today’s short run 🙁 My knee has still been hurting me on every run, so I’m going to play the half marathon this weekend by “knee” – instead of by “ear”. I don’t want to make it worse, so I want to see how…
