round 3...


{click here to see more of capitola}

so today's run i went solo.
i have to admit i was a little nervous.
i had no one to keep me going,
or let down....
and now that i know i can run 2 miles, there is no giving up...
so i scarfed down 3 salt water taffy's
{ok....4!}
put on my running clothes,
and off i went.


i put songs in my shuffle that will keep me motivated,
for example,
"big and chunky"
and i don't know if my shuffle is jacked up or if it's the "universes" way of
pushing me along??
but "big and chunky" played 3 times....!
{what's up with that...universe?}
anyways.
it must have worked cause i ran 2.5 miles!!
alone,
non stop,
with cramps,
{probably those damn taffy's}
and i had to pee as soon as i started!
{maybe that's why i didn't stop...}

what also keeps me going,
is our yearly beach house, summer trip to capitola.
we have been going now for 15 years
and the last 6 i have been pregnant
or just had a baby.
so this year i will be laying out on the beach.
so when i start to feel like i want to give up, i repeat in my head,
"capitola, capitola, capitola"
{that seems to help also ;}

Sooooooo I've been telling myself for the past month or two, "Chris, you have to start running and stuff! And dont eat the new bag of cadbury chocolates you just bought! And dont eat that muffin, or Taco Bell!" buuuuut needless to say I am a Yegge at heart and have failed so far. Luckily I can't have babies :D
