I made it out two more times over the holiday trek to Nebrasky for a couple of decent snow runs. That bitch-a$$, weak-thumb, lame-o, second-tier Nebraska "blizzard" didn't slow me down, oh no, I had to keep on mooovin...but I digress to the dangerously precipitous edge of falling into a full-on "Break My Stride" song-and-desk-dance.
Starbucks, however, did manage to kick my doo-pah1. I lost count but there were faaaaarrrr too many visits to that little den of heaven/hell for one week-long trip. We are talking multiple-visits on some days. Yeah. So now I am back at work, in steep withdrawl...but surely nothing a little New Years Eve 5k can't cure?
Stay tuned for an insightfully (though perhaps caffeine-depleted) crafted post on my 2010 goals--running and otherwise--tomorrow. Should be more fun than cleaning out my pantry, which is what I did last NYE. Cheers to being over 30 and having kids...and not being able to get a dependable babysitter.

Yes a New Years Eve 5k sound perfect! :)
ReplyDeleteGood luck girl! Have fun and step away from the Starbucks!!!
Can you please post a Yaktrax complete with pics because I really want to see these contraptions and obviously have no use of them down round these parts... :)
Yay for yak trax! It really does make you feel like a badass running out in crazy snow. Have to find something positive about winter running!
ReplyDeleteI was considering this 5k, but then realized I didn't want to race in the dark, or at all on NYE. I'm lazy that way, I guess. Go get 'em!
ReplyDeleteIm withya on the being a parent and not being able to get a dependable babysitter. I think it is a spreading epidemic, a serious one.
ReplyDelete*doo-pah* love :)
