thinknorth replied to your post: Potential races
that Niagra Half looks mighty tempting…

Definitely! Did it last year and it was a pretty nice race :) (Actually my performance wasn’t that nice, but the course was, and I’d like to have a better run this year!)

Aug 05 [Sunday] 09:00 AM - Ultra 12-Mile and 4-Mile Trail Runs
Aug 13 [Monday] 07:00 PM - RUT Race 3.4 Miles XC

I haven’t signed up for anything yet, but I’m almost definitely doing the Half Marathon in September with a coworker, and I’d like to do one or two of the trail races. It mainly depends on work and anything else going on.

Still haven’t decided if I’m doing another triathlon… given that I haven’t really been training, probably not. I’d love to, but I don’t really have the $ and the disappointment associated with this has not motivated me to train or do anything else (even though I should regardless).

I haven’t even run much lately. Time to get my ass in gear.

Oh how I love this woman. Even if my stalking never comes to fruition, I have already birthed her spirit child.

Bounced my ankle off a rock and did a face-plant in the dirt. 

And that’s why you pay attention to your feet when you’re trail running… :|

On the Trail of the White Horse
On Tuesday March 27, ultrarunner Micah True set off on a 12-mile run in the Gila National Forest and didn’t return. Days later, writer Christopher McDougall took off on a not-so-unfamiliar quest, joining a crew of ultrarunners to search for the ever-wandering man nicknamed Caballo Blanco.

7.5 mile run

…and I thought it would be great to have a lazy morning and then start running at 11am when the sun was well up. :|

I’m a smart one. Glad I brought water, because it was blistering hot!

Just completed my last two finals today! I’m freeeeeeeee!

Relaxing evening with friends tonight, have a road/trail run mapped out for tomorrow, and even time to sleep in past 5:30 AM. Stoked!

It is gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous out today. I couldn’t bear to start studying right when I got home from school/work, so I hopped on my bike and took off for 20.5 miles and followed it up with a half mile jog.

I am now a sweaty mess. Also, I would like to thank the mustached man on the motorbike for giving me the “motorcycle wave” when I passed him on my bike. Thanks for being awesome, sir.

Off to another city for the night, then half marathon in the morning.

It’s going to be long. And cold. Why do I do this to myself. I never manage to appropriately dress for running in the cold. I’m either too hot or freezing.

Pre-registered for the Tough Mudder coming to a city near me in 2013? Yes I am!

I love my dog.

That will be all.

No, wait - I ran five miles tonight; woohoo.

…and I followed that with an ice cream sundae.
