Comments on: #17 on The List is going to leave me a little breathless, sore beyond my wildest dreams, and running for my life. http://reinventingsandyb.com/2009/11/08/17-on-the-list/ Mon, 05 Mar 2012 08:35:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: sandyb http://reinventingsandyb.com/2009/11/08/17-on-the-list/comment-page-1/#comment-297 sandyb Thu, 19 Nov 2009 05:11:18 +0000 http://reinventingsandyb.wordpress.com/?p=737#comment-297 I will most def check out some groups. There is one I have my eye on and you've just convinced me it's probably what I need to do to kick my training up a few. Great way to meet new people and, of course, not look like a running, sweating idiot alone. Ooooh, and I'm very pumped for your post this Friday! I will be there! (Thank YOU so much for sharing that. For real.) I will most def check out some groups. There is one I have my eye on and you’ve just convinced me it’s probably what I need to do to kick my training up a few.

Both for the compliments on my little 'ol blog here and for the insight into the running. I see people running all the time and, even though that was me loving it once, lately I've been thinking, "why the hell do they look so happy?" I know there is something cathartic about running nowhere in particular and I'm looking forward to the challenge. Blisters, lost toenails, sore ass and all. SandyD… wow, thank you!

Especially for girls like us who like the feeling of crossing something of a list. I loved finishing the run and crossing it off of that day's training! p.s. You totally inspired a post that is going up on my site this Friday...still working on it (my list). Thank you for that.

I haven't run since (haha) but it was a To Do and I felt amazing when it was all said and done... felt pretty brutal during, but that's not the point. Just train up and you will be great. I definitelty didn't train enough and that was my biggest mistake. Crossing that finish line will be well worth it, trust me.

March 2010! So, you're training through the winter, huh? Is it cold where you live? Like, am I supposed to run through the snow? I dunno. It's been years! Hit me back again and tell me how you're doing Nikki. (somehow it's nice to know there will be someone else running their asses off like me.) p.p.s. I ALMOST got the blue lulu run shirt (it's hot stuff.) But I'm a sucker for purple. Truth. That’s awesome! March 2010! So, you’re training through the winter, huh? Is it cold where you live?

Hmmm... Fast walking maybe? Sort of like being half in, half out. You know, just the tip. Anyway. I hear you with the complex relationship with running... I wondered for years why people were so interested in "running" nowhere in particular... Just. Running. Apparently it's very cathartic. Humph. We shall see. Cure for running, eh? Hmmm…

I'm so pumped about doing this. I hear the 2 hour mark (or so) is where most 10k-ers end up. I guess that's a good "goal" to train towards or at least it will give me some sort of idea where I should be... kind of. That sounds awesome! I’m so pumped about doing this.
