I’m procrastinating going out for my long run today as the weather is never good here on a Sunday, it’s always pouring of rain. This is what I’m training for now, 20 days away. Super nice bling. Yes, I train for the bling… and you know this. If you enjoy reading recaps of how training is going, check out Jamesy’s most recent post. He gives a great summary.

I’m procrastinating too! Don’t have a long run…but thinking about 6 miles. In the meantime, the rain clouds are getting ever closer. I did eat a pop tart to guilt myself into heading out. So far it hasn’t worked! Hope you’re having a nice Easter

Nice! Hey, when a race comes up, instead of saying “Bring it on,” do you ever say “Bling it on?”
