The treadmill that just wouldn’t die.

Yes, I know I said I was giving up the treadmill….  Anyway, the only chance I had to do today’s 3 miler was at work, at the gym, during lunch.  Good run though,…I was able to watch TV & catch up on the news while running.  Multi-tasking?  Ok, maybe not.

Here we go!

“We have these fear barriers…back off points. And a lot of them are unfounded. We haven’t even touched on what we’re capable of yet. And we won’t-not until we can break the chains that have our minds tied to our bodies.” -Gary Elliott

I’ve been neglecting Toots and Sally and I feel bad.

I have not been running consistently at all since our big-ass run, so I have not been posting much. It may not appear to be so, but I am thinking about Paris nonstop (when I’m not worrying about school), and I actually feel more or less ready. I actually had a fever on Tuesday and didn’t go to work, attempted a run that turned into a 2 mile-ish walk/run with Dawg. We hit the creek path, so at least the bit I ran felt good. I’m still just feeling exhausted and like I’m not sleeping enough. I think if I could consistently get good sleep for this next week before we leave, I’ll feel more confident, but if I can’t sleep this week, I’m screwed when we get to Paris.

Oooooohhhh! I can already smell the baguettes!!!!!!!!!

One week from today we will be on a plane.
