Shhh, tummy!

Today I decided I will be participating in the Bellingham Bay 5K. My uncle and cousins are running the half-marathon, but I just don't think I can train for that much in the next four months. 5K though, totally. But I'll need your help: please ask me to jog with you. I'll be starting slow (ten minutes a couple times per week) but I'd eventually ( Read more... )

Dude, you're running a marathon! That's so badass. Too bad I don't live there or I would totally jog with you cheer for you from the sidelines!

I can't believe you have to deal with Mother's Day, her birthday, and the anniversary of her passing all in the span of a few months. If anyone can deal, it's you, but damn, that's a lot on your emotional plate. As always, let me know if there's anything I can do. Besides trying to hug you through my computer.

It's just a 5K, not the whole marathon. I am not that badass at the moment.

well, it's still pretty impressive to me!

Yeah....I haven't run more than a mile since eighth grade.

Sara and I were going to start jogging a couple of times a week. Sara said she'll totally jog with you too! let's make it a group effort! Hell, if we all get good enough, maybe the two of us can join you on the 5k.

It totally is a surreal thing to write about (May has been a hard/interesting month for me this year). And while you're probably the strongest person I know (though you may not feel like it), please, please, please call me if you need anything. Even if it's just a hug at three in the morning. I have no plans on Monday, so if you want to do something (go to the beach, sit in a park, drink a few beers, etc.), just let me know!

Let me know when you're going out and I'll try to join you! Maybe we can alternate locations?

Totally let you know! My street is perfect one since to the end of the street one way is 3/4 of a mile, so round trip is 1.5, which is fine for weenies like me.
and I bet Greenlake and various QA streets would be awesome as well.
