So it's a whole a month after finals, but wahoo! it finally feels like summer. I've gone on two post-nationals runs, but nothing exciting to report there. I feel so out of shape! I'm still sore from my marathon adventure when I found out first hand that Stu's marathon pace is faster than my 5k pace, which is a bummer ;) teehee. I did buy new shoes today, and I'm super stoked about this whole discount thing... my shoes were like $50, which is fabulous since i'm a poor college kid. I ended up with stratus's, which i don't love, but they'll do for now. Then I opened coach's workout schedule, which was intimidating, but in its own way encouraging as well. Every year i look at it and freak out a bit at first becuase, to be honest.. it's seems rediculous. but then at the same time i appreciate it, and i guess take comfort in it becuase (as much as i don't want to admit it) I know if i want it bad enough, it'll happen. And really, that realization alone is sufficient motivation... becuase let's face it, it's kinda fun to do the impossible :)
In non-running news, I went to the beach for the second time all year, which was cool. I think if i go on the 4th for fireworks, i'll have a new PR. lol.
Beth and I are headed out on our road trip to VA to visit nick tomorrow, which should be a blast.
Hope everyone is having a lovely day! I'm planning on writing in here at least once every 3 days, and you should too! I'm asking for at least a weekly update, but the more the merrier. i'll be putting up a survey soon so we can all introduce ourselves and be friends :) yay!
<3, jen
Alex-I was too busy saying goodbye to Noelle to remember that you were leaving too! :( bye bye!
"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. impossible is not a fact. its an opinion. impossible is not a declaration. its a dare. impossible is potential. impossible is temporary. impossible is nothing."
