I could!

Static Stats:
Cycling: (formerly running) 25 miles
Desert consumption: not since Sunday :(
Weight: whatever

Okay Kids, I DID IT!!! Not that anyone ever had any real doubts. I mean we all knew that I would be able to cover the distance. We were just unsure of how long it would take. Not only did I complete the run without walking, passing out, or peeing on myself I actually finished with a quite impressive time. I was one minute off from the goal I set prior to the ski fall! Everything was perfect. Quick recap for those who may be interested (otherwise skip to the next paragraph). 20,000 people participated in the 1/2. It was my day. Why it was my day: I was given the beautiful corral number of 3, it was not 80 degrees and sunny, I had a bathroom to frequent before the run, my nutrition that week was on point, perfectly hydrated the day before to avoid issues, and most importantly I was for once being mentally strong by defeating every negative thought that came to mind. Let's see if that last thought can transpire into my day to day thinking. Non-runners don't realize how much you can learn from running. You see running in circles isn't static its dynamic. Thank you God for giving me a strong mind. I pray that I can continue to be strong minded and fight the negative thoughts.

READERS: Thank you for your confidence and participating in the first ever " I think she can" vote.

Speaking of readers: I now have 2 readers (not including L)! I love you both! Readership is up 100%. If only the economy was doing as well.

Thats it for a while with the running. The downhills did a number on my ill trained body.
