BOOYAH!

Well, lately my life is taken one day at a time. Is it going to be a good day, or a bad day? Today? Good day! I just wanted to run. My goal was to keep moving. I don't care about my splits (even though I listed them) I just wanted to move and not stop moving.

Mile 1 - 9:25
Mile 2 - 9:35
Mile 3 - 9:51
Mile 4 - 9:58
Stopped for a GU...
Mile 5 - 10:01
Mile 6 - 10:06
Mile 7 - 10:08
Mile 8 - 9:57
Decided to do the last .2 as two sprints
Mile .2 - 7.21

For some reason, I have been a sock fool...a SOCK FOOL! I don't know what my damage is but I have totally disregarded Socks 101. As a result, I have a huuuuge, sexy, sassy blister named Sally (yes, it's THAT big - ok...well...maybe not that big). Sally started bugging me around mile 3, but like the loser I am, I decided to keep on keepin on. If I went home, I would have been done. I've run through worse. I HAVE to stop being an ass about my feet. I have wright socks which I love, just bought some cute little toe socks which saved me on my vff run...there is no reason to run in my over-sized Hanes.

Bad Jenna...Bad...no beer for you...well...maybe...ok...fine...beer for you (and a cupcake!)

    It is good to take life one day at a time and how come we have to go through tough times to realize that! Hang in there Jenna. Way to run girl, socks or no socks! I love smart wool socks. I forgot to pack socks in my bag today so I ran without. I only did 3 so no problems or Sally's for me! hehehe Was your beer green by any chance?
