That is AWESOME! I’d be so proud if I managed that… then again I am really in no place to be running like that right now. :P

Your play list looks pretty rockin too! I might have to check out a couple of those!

Thanks for your comments on my wedding post too – I kind of felt silly after I posted it, but then I thought, NAH, I’m doing this for me, and I’d deserve to do something really special like that with my hubby if I managed to achieve this goal! :)

Congratulations lady! That is totally killer that you finished in 26:49. Running in the heat is HARD too! Don’t be nervous about the 10K – you are at least conscious of the chance of over-doing it at the start so likelihood is you will be golden!

Mmmm dates and nut butter – my new favorite!

That definitely kept me running ;) I’ve mostly been working up for next week’s 10k since, and now I want to try to hit the double digits outdoors before I’m forced back on the treadmill for winter. We’ve all got our own individual goals, there are plenty of ways to feel proud of ourselves :)

Congrats to you, that is awesome. You know, I think we each ran races back in May. I basically quit running and you kept going. If I would have kept up, I could feel as proud of myself right now as I do of you!!

I was surprised too when my purple beans turned green after cooking, weird huh? And I bought a purple cauliflower over the weekend – not sure what I am going to do with it though!

Happy Monday! :D
