Ugly race pic reenactment

I know. Not even a week, and I'm already reenacting an ugly race pic. Well, this one is of my sometimes running partner, who I am unable to get an ugly race pic of as I am dragged/dragging her along the zoo run route when it's about 100 degrees (you try that with 52 pounds of sheer muscle on a leash). Anyway, this is pretty much what the race pic would look like at 1.5 miles:



Gwen the Pitoodle: "SRSLY Y R WE RUNNIN WHEN THAR R NO KITTEHS 2 CHASE?" Translation: http://speaklolcat.com/


Okay, she's not so ugly. But she has gotten into a bad habit of licking frogs in the yard at night. If that makes her run faster, I may try it, too, but I'm pretty sure it won't work. http://www.eopoint.com/wiki/index.php/Froglicking

So far, it just makes her wipe her tongue with muddy paws and bury her head in the (kiddie) pool and blow bubbles - but then, I've been like that after many races (and some weekends).

Hey Sally - this is so neat that you are keeping up with your running via a "blog"....I too am new to this technical thing. I just started training this week for a 1/2 marathon in Dallas in December....I may quit in a few weeks but am pumped up right now. My friend is helping me along with training and all. I have my first long run on Saturday and I am supposed to run 4 miles....yeah friggin' right. I'll walk/run it. Still have baby fat from 17 month old Pierce. Piper is 3 and they keep me busy. I'll keep you updated on my training.

Way to go Steph! You can totally do it - it's just a little further every week!
