I always think of Mr. Fredrickson from Up
Each of you will soon be snuggled on the coach or sweating on the treadmill watching the amazing story of Terry Hitchcock and his 75 marathons in 75 days.
I have a feeling you'll do just fine at the 10K tomorrow! Good luck!
ReplyDeleteAwesome way to wrap up a month. I love that you incorporate your life into it and think it could help in my overall analysis!
ReplyDeleteYou are going to rock the 10K!
Woot! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteCongrats to the winners! My September sucked running wise but was awesome in so many other ways so it evens out.
ReplyDeleteI didn't realize you're CA trip was child free. How nice!
I know that heel strike stock photo is the pits!
Congrats on a wonderful month. Happy October to you. And good luck with the weight loss. Autumn is not an easy time of year for that. I think we are programmed for hibernation, read, storing as much fat as possible no matter what we eat.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic September! YAY!!!
ReplyDeleteI remember when I was whining about my weight and you sent me and email and told me: control the things you can control!! I think about it often as I fight my way back down to racing weight. It is so hard, but I am slowly getting there. I know you can do it! (eating out is the worst weight gainer. grrrr).
Godo luck with the 10k!!
so nice to catch up with you again to find your streak is still alive and going so well. I dropped 14 lbs this summer by using my fitness pal to track calories and Supreme 90 day workouts, in addition to my running. Check out my current blog if your interested in more info about it. I just blogged about the results.
