Awesome job!

I got your invite to Daily Mile - I use it already, but haven't updated it since I've been running with my Garmin. If I start using it again, I'll let ya know!

Nice job on the sit-ups and hill workout girly! You are going to rock that 5K! Just please remember to wait for me at the finish line! Hahaha! I have a feeling you're going to smoke me :) Happy Hump Day!

Hi Morgan

Sounds like things are going awesome for you right now and that is well... AWESOME!

Congrats on a great March and hope April is more of the same.

Katie said...

nice job on march! keep rocking it, woman!

NY Wolve said...

I always thought you ran more in a month. I guess reading of all the fab runs makes it seems like you dash off every day.

I hope April brings more goals and more success.

WannabeRunner said...

Sounds like a great March. Congrats!

Therese said...

OMG last night the hubby ran to 7-11 for a few beers and this morning I found cookie crumbs all over the driver seat! Guilty! He had devoured 2 cookies on the drive home...the place is a block away lol.

EZEthan said...

Yeah!!! I love stats...

BTW, I mockingly clicked on your link to "the superficial" with full intentions of scoffing at it!!!

Then I saw the high resolution bikini shots... hmm, I thought, maybe I'll just scroll down a little... and then the next thing I knew I was fully immersed in the epic Twitter battle between Lindsay Lohan and George Lopez about the baby powder in her shoes ?!?

GGRRRRR!!! That's 15 minutes of my life I'm not going to get back... well played Redhead, well played...

harmony said...

Very productive month---good for you!
Thanks for posting about the book. I need more suggestions. Have you read The Help? I think you would enjoy it.
I am off for a mid-morning run.
Best--Harmony

1) thesuperficial.com is great/bad. so is laineygossip.com. (you're welcome!)

2) dress help or date night help! I CAN HELP WITH THE DINNER LOCATION! Let's email/chat because it's my favorite thing to give restaurant suggestions!

3) BAA 5K! WOOOO. The end.

Neato! Congrats on all your accomplishments. And I added you on Daily Mile :D I'm obsessed with it too, especially now that you can import directly from your garmin device. garmin = <3 and garmin+dailymile=bliss :D

Harold - The Aimless Runner said...

Congrats on the mileage and hitting goals! After seeing some of the previous comments, I can't wait to upload stats from my shiny new Garmin to dailymile :D

Marlene said...

Excellent post-marathon month!

Two Spike visits coming up - YAY!!!

You are going to smoke the BAA 5K.

dawn said...

I died laughing when I read your current bane of existence...seriously, it completely made my day =)

Run Jess Run said...

I heart the dailymile! I love looking at the little things like how many TV's are powered and how many donuts you burn.

Safe travels up here next week!! I hope the gorgeous weather we are having now holds out for you next week.

TMB @ RACING WITH BABES said...

Dailymile is awesomely addictive! Yay for a great month and getting to see Spike soon!

Lauren/Lo/Sassy said...

Love the recap! It's nice to look back on an entire month.

Jill said...

I was dailymile obsessed and couldn't get enough of my "fix" - and then wham, I lost interest overnight and haven't be on in 3 weeks. Yikes.

Boston: We're planning a little get together after the race, I hope you can come!!! email me if you and Spike could make it and I'll let you know...I hope we can catch up there, would be a blast to meet you! You're going to do awesome in the 5K!!!

Running Kiwi said...

Great month! I want to run like you when I grow up ;) LOL As for Dailymile, I use it as another useful place to keep things updated, but wouldn't say I am obsessed :)

J said...

Great month of march! I have seen that you are obsessed with Daily Mile...I think we all are!

Debbie said...

I love Justin Timberlake which is probably wrong on many counts. And kudos for running more than your goal!!

sunapeegirl said...
