- Lankle/Run Update: I am slowly but surely getting back up to speed. I have just been running for fun with no particular agenda. For absolutely no reason at all the Lankle was bothering me Tuesday, so I skipped a workout all together and did some xtraining on Wednesday to give it a little more rest before this mornings run. All in all I've logged a little over 14 miles since last week and I will attempt my first notable long run Saturday with my beloved B.o.B and B.R.A.!!!! I can't wait to run with my Gasparilla girls in the a.m., hit up breakfast and then catch up with EVERYONE at my Goodbye Party Saturday night...
Ok, I may or may not have just shed a tear typing that. *sigh* How will I ever manage another marathon training cycle without them?!?!? Good thing I'm already well versed in being LDC'd (Long Distance Coached); as Coach EK & I have always discussed my training via email. - Move/J-O-B Update: Thanks to my relentless stress induced insomnia I am all but ready to go in the physical sense. (Insomnia = Late Night Productivity!) From an emotional stand point; notsomuch. But let's face it will I ever be ready to leave the 24/7/365 sunshine and my amazing friends? Nope. Is it worth it to get to my Spike? Abso-freakin-lutely. My last day of work is tomorrow. After a final Florida fun filled weekend, I will then spend the whole of next week tying up loose ends; spending quality time with my O-town crew, getting the hitch for the trailer installed on my car, getting the permanent crown put on my tooth (FYI - Do NOT wait to go to the dentist for the first time in 4 years on the fly because you won't have insurance anymore after the end of the month! Oi my poor face/jaw!) Finally, D-Day, next Friday morning, I will pick up the U-Haul to seal the deal. Friday night is my O-town Goodbye Party and then bright and early Saturday morning that's all she wrote; Goodbye Hades, Hello Road Trip North... (I DEF shed tears writing that)
As far as the job sitch goes, I had an encouraging phone interview yesterday afternoon and I continue to put out resumes like it's my job. I am hoping that now that I am closer to being in state I will be able to secure more interviews and get something in the works ASAP! "Operation Get a Job/Avoid becoming a Hooker" MUST succeed!!! - Redhead Running Ramblings will resume next week and boy oh boy do I have a ton of stuff to get ya'll caught up on! Running Frenemy Stories, Marathon #3 Announcement, a long over due "You know you're a Runner when"... oh the things that have been swirling around in my head since we've last had a good chat! It's amazing all the things you think up when you're 3 weeks removed from the running blog world!
Have fantabulous weekends, get your run on and I'll catch ya'll on the flipside!!!

Running frenemy??? I'm intrigued. And absolutely CANNOT WAIT to see you!
Have a great time this weekend and I hope your lankle feels up for the run!! I can't wait to hear about your new adventure. I know it is hard, but it will all be worth it!! Have a great weekend!
have a safe move!! and good luck w/ the job search. stay positive.
Good luck w/the move, the job, the adjustment...you'll do great.
Thanks for checking in! I miss your posts, girl! Can't wait to catch up with ya.
Now that you're moving close-ish, there should be some excellent opportunities for getting together. You and Spike should plan a road trip to Ontario. lol
Good luck with the loose ends, enjoy the goodbye parties. {{HUG}}
YAY on the lankle!!!
Don't knock being a hooker. Just make sure if you do go down that road, you're the high class version.
Have a great time at all your going away parties and enjoy your LR with your crew.
Lots of luck with the move!!!! Glad to see you're still kicking over there....enjoy your long run, I'm jealous!
I know leaving a place you've lived for 10+ years is incredibly difficult. Especially since you have such an awesome network of friends. But think of what's waiting for you here. Me, of course. Ha! No, I mean Spike. He's totally worth moving back to the big mitten for.
I can't wait to see more of you once you get here. Good luck with this last week. :)
I can't imagine the stress of moving so far away, but at least you have someone waiting for you when you get there. Good luck with the move and the job search!
So glad to read this! Miss checking in with you!
And so happy things are going as smoothly as the could, you are a strong lady and I'm sure all of this will work out for the best :)
Good luck, thinking about ya!

GOod luck with "Operation Get a Job/Avoid becoming a Hooker". :o)
Good luck with the move. I am glad that you are taking it easy with the lankle.
best of luck with everything! you'll do great/be great no matter what you do! looking forward to hearing more info! :-)
What's wrong with being a hooker?
Sorry about that lankle bothering again. It sounds like you are taking a much needed break though!
Great post! Good luck with move and can't wait until you get back on a regular scheduled program!!!
Awesome job on the run, especially after the lankle flare up. I'm looking forward to your return next week!
I am glad you are getting this wrapped up and ready to go..and yes I don't think you are ever really ready to leave places that have good friends! You are being a champ! Have a ton of fun next week hanging with your peeps before you go and I can't wait to hear all you updates/stories!
Hope you have a good time this weekend with all your friends! It is sad to leave them. I remember when I left college I cried like a little girl - so not the same as what you are doing, but sorta, I mean you are leaving! SO just try to think happy thoughts and enjoy the time you have with them!
Safe travels up north! As far as I can tell, the weather will continue with Florida like heat next week.
Enjoy your final fun in the sun weekend. Just because you're moving up to the Midwest, I'm predicting a cold summer. Thanks a lot! Cheers!
GOOD LUCK with everything!!
I'll have my fingers crossed for you on the results of the phone inverview!!
I hope you have a great week of tying up lose ends and spending time with your friends. It's hard to move but it will be worth it in the end. Good luck with the job search- all you can do is keep plugging away! Moving closer will definitely help things!
Good luck girl!!! Aren't these moves fun? I know it's stress, but I get so excited when I move to a new place, to start a new life.
You rock!
