Oh the things I could blog about today! A lot has been going on the past few weeks and although my blog has become a bore, I've been really busy!
I stayed in B'ham this weekend and had a great time getting to catch up with Kayleigh and Justin! It was so great seeing them, now if only I had a few photos to document that they were actually in town!
There have been what seem to be torrential downpours here all weekend, and it has gotten really cold!
Thanks to everyone that did their rain dance, our crawfish/cookout got rained out last night and will have to be held at a later date and all attempts at running outside got thrown out the window!
My life has recently revolved around running.  I'm afraid I'm losing motivation and I'm losing it fast! 
There is just nothing (and I do stress nothing) that can get me to actually enjoy it.  Yes, you feel better when you do it but no it is not the least bit enjoyable.  Today, I was fortunate enough to run beside two very attractive guys but around mile 2 it just doesn't matter how attractive they might be-I'm ready to go home.  It does get better with each day but I'm pretty convinced that running on the treadmill just isn't cutting it.  I've built up the endurance to last the full three miles, but my my knees and shins tell me otherwise! When I started out, I got terrible shin splints.  Since then they've gotten a tiny bit better but it's killing my knees.  I used to just run on the elliptical (and it saved all of the above listed) but I've got 21 days until D-Day and until daylight savings time (when I can actually run in the daylight), I'm stuck on the treadmill.  Overall, if I had to run a 5k in the morning, I would be prepared.  I guess that's all that matters.
Happy Sunday to you all!
