45:09!!!!!

I am so thankful to my body for getting me through this race.  My legs were strong, my heart was good, and I made it through 5kms in 45 minutes and 09 seconds.  While I’m not breaking any speed records anytime soon, I am extremely proud of this time, and I look at it as a jumping-off point for future training.

Full race recap to come later, after I have some pictures.

For now, some links:

Getting married? Newlywed? Medicinal Marzipan tweeted about needing some REAL marriage advice, and I responded.  She turned those responses into a great feature on marriage advice from real people.  Check out part 1 and part 2.

If you need a new yoga mat, check out your closest Lululemon.  The store near me will give you 15% off a new mat if you donate your gently used old mat.  I traded in my old, scruffy yoga  mat for a gorgeous new Lulu mat today, and I’m happy that my old mat will go to a good cause.  And that sounded like a commercial.  I don’t work for Lululemon, but if I did, you can bet there would be shirts in larger sizes than 12 there!!!

Hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend!!
