4 Miles!

Today we had a team practice and I ran 4 miles. I feel so good! I know that sounds annoying and I promise I won't encourage any of you to come run with me and become super, crazy, peppy lady (unless you want to, which of course would be lovely). I only ran once during the week instead of the 3 times we were supposed to, I expected today to be awful but was pleasantly surprised. Next week I'm running at least twice by myself, so check in for updates.

I checked out a new bathroom today. I think this blog might turn into both my running updates as well as a guide to restroom use in the Santa Monica area. The Holiday Inn is quite lovely by the way. I ran in with about 7 other women all dressed in the Team in Training jersey. I think they would have stopped one of us, but were intimidated by the large group. People in general look at us as though we are crazy when we run. I probably would too, if I were just trying to walk my dog and 100 people ran by me, panting.

One of my teamates has already raised $4,500. I felt excited that I had almost $200! This fundraising thing might be harder than I thought. Tell your friends about me and tell your friends to the their friends! By the way, I still want to get my hat... I'm almost there.
