3 Things Thursday

  1. The FANTABULOUS staff over at Nuun sent me this package yesterday with the 3 remaining flavors I had yet to try after reading my review on their product. How awesome is that!?!?! Thank you so much Nuun! I've already tried the Tri-Berry and I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it!!!!!



  2. Tonight I'm hitting up the O.A.R. concert with Rixy & Ebs!!! Pamlico girls reunite! So many nights spent on the porch jamming out to O.A.R. with these girls back in the day. I am SO STOKED! I L-O-V-E O.A.R.!!! They are a staple in my running playlist, you should def check them out if you don't already love them.

  3. Saturday's long run is 22 miles. TWENTY-TWO MILES!!! A four mile bump up from last week's 18 miler, my first and only long run mileage bump over 2 miles. This run is also my longest run of the training plan. I am scared sh*tless. Thankfully B.o.B and the BRA have graciously agreed to let me run with them on Saturday morning. This has been plaguing my mind, emotions and nerves all week. Wish us luck!!! Did I mention that Saturday is my 22 miler?
    AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

22 miles! Holy Smokes! I can't wait to hear about it. You'll rock it I'm sure! Have fun at Of a Revolution... damn I'm jealous! Someday I will see them!

I pretty much love Tri-Berry anything :)

ah....22 miles is nothing, you'll kick ass!!

Karena said...

awesome! tri-berry and lemon-lime are my faves! i'm convinced banananuun tastes a little like a banana now & later dunked in water. most people i know either love it or hate it...so i'm curious about your reaction to it!
You are going to rock that 22 miles and feel so accomplished afterward!! Just think, it's only 4.2 miles shy of a marathon! ;)

Therese said...

I'm sure you will kill that run!! I think the change of scenery and a whole new group of runners around will give you the boost to rock it out!

Have fun tonight :)

B.o.B. said...

Can't wait to run with you! WE are going to give that 22 miler what for! (Or die in the process.)

Have fun tonight!

The Caffeinated Entrepreneur said...

Have fun!!

Jennifer P said...

OK, if I can be fine on 12, you can be fine on 22.

Runeatrepeat said...

Good luck on the 22 miler!!!

ShutUpandRun said...

That's a long ass run. You should just add 4.2 miles and call it a marathon!

Debbie said...

I do love to get me some free stuff! Good for you.
And good luck for the run.

Jamoosh said...

Am I to assume you are not trusting enough of Lazy Runner to map out a 22 mile course...

Marlene said...

Yay for free Nuun!

You are going to be SO fine on the 22-miler. Don't think about it too much. Just do it!

(And please give me the same pep talk next week for my 22. lol)

busyrunningmama said...

One day I'll say "22 mile run" in the same sentence with "I have a..", You are so gonna rock it girl! Can't wait to hear the results and you are so lucky to have some local runner/bloogers to go with you!! You guys can do it! Have fun and enjoy!!!
Have fun at O.A.R tonight!!!

Shannon said...

That's really awesome that Nuun sent you the flavors you've yet to try!

Good luck on your run Saturday!!

Fun stuff. I love NUUN, it is the best. OAR is going to be a great concert. Don't worry about your 22 miler, you'll be fine.

Mel -Tall Mom on the Run said...

SWEET for free Nuun!!

FYI my 22 miler, although totally flat, was one of my very favorite runs of my training plan for my Marathon.. You can make it enjoyable, it is all in how you think about it..

Jordan said...

I'm going to have to try some of this awesome NUUN since it gets the red head stamp of approval.

Have fun at the concert tonight, and good luck on the duece duece run saturday, I bet the feeling afterward will be nothing short of amazing!

Julia said...

22 miles!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Gooooooo Morgan! You can do it!

Paige@ Running Around Normal said...

Ooh lovely nuun package. You will do an awesome job on those 22 miles! Show en who's boss! :D

bill carter said...

Dude, you are so gonna rock it! Just don't try laying over a 1000 ft of hard wood floor by yourself the day before the run. I know this to be true.

BTW, OAR rocks!

Jeri said...

AHHHH I LOVE OAR!! I've seen them 3 times and fell in love more each time. 22 miles?!?! Scary. But I'm sure you'll rock it and have an excellent story to tell post-run. :) I'm going to attempt to figure out how to stash 3 GUs intead of 2 into the sports bra on Saturday, we'll see if it's a giant fail or not. :p

Running, kind of. said...

I love O.A.R.! Have fun!

i just tried Nuun for the first time after Mel over at Tall Mom on the Run had her give away and I lost. I had the Orange Ginger and it was pretty good! how in the world do you guys get this stuff sent to you? Awesome!!!

Good luck on your 22 miler! You will do great I am sure! I can't wait to read all about the adventure!

Hey Girl, One Day soon you are going to rock that 22M run, leaving it Shatered and Missing Pieces. And then you can Lay Down for the post long run nap full of Love and Memories about how awesome you are.

Kelly said...

Love OAR. Enjoy the concert and good luck with the run!

Tara said...

That is one long ASS run chica. Good luck and let us know how it goes. I'm tired just thinking about it. Gotta go get some wine now....

That Pink Girl said...

22, yikes! You can do it - you've run 20, it's only 2 more miles, that's like 20 minutes max. Can of corn as my coach says. Good luck!

RunToFinish said...

wow that's a big jump in miles, but it sounds like you have a solid base under you and 2 great partners so you will fly!

i've never tried nuun, I'll have to check it ou

Zoë said...

Awesome that you got free product! And you'll totally kick that 22 miler's bootay...go get 'em!! :) Have a great weekend!

Melissa H said...

Just keep thinking how awesome it will feel to say that you've done 22 miles! WHOOOO!

The Laminator said...

Oh Morgan, you'll be fine! Don't let the distance intimidate you. You're awesome, so don't sweat it! You'll be great. Get psyched and run within yourself - rock to O.A.R. and the distance will fly by. Go get 'em!
