I got into the cult of running b/c of this crew. Last year this week I did my 1st 8k at the Shamrock in VA Beach. Jill and Joe Green also did it. They inspired me to really get into it.

I am doing the 8k Saturday and the Half Marathon Saturday. Any 757ers runnign this weekend? Might be nice to ctach up and get some pics.

I am also doing the Monument Avenue 10k next weekend in Richmond. I know Sarah is doing it too. Anyone else there? Also a nice photo op.

In case you're keeping score, I am also doing a triathlon this month. 1k swim, 15 mile bike, 5k run.

Long way from fat indeed.....

Hope all is well.

Absolutely NO running for me right now...Baby Claire is due in 22 days!  let me know when you get into town...perhaps we could meet for a cup of coffee or dinner.  Good luck in all your running and the triathlon, too.

My little tiny monkey is a Clare, spelled differently but the same idea. She is the one asleep on my head.

Will give info on Richmond later. Think I get in late Friday. I have a group of high school friends running it b/c it is our 20 year anniversary this year, so we're all coming home to run.

Sounds good.  Depending on my health at the time I should be around...

My oldest is my Monkey and this one is my Froggy!

I'm lucky my knees take me walking daily. Too much arthritis.
I will run in spirit with y'all!

Walking is fabulous!  That is where I started...then to a trot, then a jog then all out running.  Hoping I can get back to it after Claire comes!

Yay for running! I know you already said I was running, but I'm saying it, too The 10k is a week from Sat. and I'm somewhat of a nervous wreck. I know I can do the distance, but I think it's more of what it represents to me, you know what I'm saying? You all do I'm sure. I will no doubt be bawling at the finish line.

I'm actually considering doing another 10k the weekend after that in Charleston. My brother-in-law and a friend from college are doing it, so I'll be there anyway. There are actually more people running than the Monument Ave. race! We'll see how it goes.

It really does feel like a cult sometimes I NEVER thought I would be one of those people who was into running. NEVER. I totally did not believe people when they said it was addicting. Thought they were bonkers. But here I am...

Here's to hoping the sun shines again soon!
