in a fun change of pace, i hit up the philly half marathon with roosk this morning. d, the squeeze, roosk and i drove up to philly yesterday afternoon, picked up our packets, had a delicious dinner, hit the sack and woke up for 13.1 gorgeous miles. the day was perfect. weather was amazing.
i have never run a race with someone before from start to finish. i always get so focused on my own race, but i had so much time running with roosk. it was about both of us achieving our own goals together. she finished her first 12+ mile run and i broke some bad habits. and it was a perfect day to boot. oh, we also did some training planning for the marathon in march:)
thanks for a great run, roosk!

this is me. i’m in dc and i’m: living, working, gardening, swimming, learning, petting dogs, talking, brushing my teeth (not enough can be said about good oral hygene), cooking, riding my bike, reading, going to school, eating, walking, running, sprinting, drinking, sleeping and listening.

i can’t stand questions like, ‘what’s your favorite book? movie? song? or artist?’ because i find them boring. chicago is my blood. i’ve called seattle and italy home. dc suits my current mood. my dad is my best friend. i like bud in a can, but have been called a beer/wine/food snob on more than one occasion. i’d like to live greener. i’d also like to be realistic. i will always own a car.

i strongly believe that the secret to making green is going green. this is the intention i plan to learn by, live by and work by.

oh and ice cream. i LOVE ice cream.
