Fab-a-lus!!

My run yesterday was much better than the previous.  I actually made it through 3.1 miles.  I think hydration is key!  (Everyone say it with me: DUUUH!)  My time was not as good as I hoped, but that's okay.  While running I counted 95 candy wrappers (10 or so still with candy), 1 flosser, 1 empty mini liquor bottle, and 1 window kitty!  (Window kitties are my favorite.)

When I got home from my run I found wonderful news in my e-mail!  I was selected to be a Sweat Pink Ambassador!!  I'm so excited!!! :)

When they post my "a-ha moment" story on the blog I will share the link.

I mentioned that Pile on the Miles started today, but we also started our own November Miles Challenge in my local running group.  San Juan County Moms RUN This Town represent!!! WHAT! WHAT! lol.  ;)  I've got to come up with some good prizes for it!  I already have a few ideas!

Tonight the kiddos and I, and a neighbor went for a walk around the hood and picked up some of the above mentioned candy wrappers.  It was a nice walk.  A 4-cat walk.  (3 yard kitties, and 1 window kitty).  :)  Happy Friday!!

Happy Halloweenies!

Happy Halloween to you all!!!  Here are our pumpkins this year.  I helped my 4 year old carve his (aka I did it for him) and for some reason my pumpkins always end up looking alarmed.....

My run yesterday was the worst I've had in a while.  I started out fairly strong but by about 10 minutes in I felt awful, super hot, pukey, etc...I took Gatorade with me this time instead of water and that was a BAD decision.  My mouth tasted sickly sweet and I wondered if that was the problem.  I only got in 1.5 miles before I HAD to stop.  As I was walking home I realized that <<gasp>> my husband was right....I do not drink enough fluids. I can go all day without drinking anything and that's just no good!

When it interferes with my runs that's when I gotta fix it!  I downloaded an app on my phone called Drink-O-Matic.     Hopefully this helps!!  Today is a rest day, which is good because the trick-or-treaters start early here and I don't want to have to dodge them for 40 minutes of running.  This week has been stressful so far, so I told hubby that we should take a shot every time the doorbell rings. LOL.  We'd be loaded about 20 minutes in because we get about 200 trick-or-treaters here on Halloween!!  I am having a beer though and some chocolate!
