Yay! I've committed! And a month from now at this moment I'll be sipping mai-tais, sea-side with a lei & a medal around my neck.
What I'm feeling today is nervous, but not just for the run. Wait, did I mention this blog will not just be about running? WHEW! As if you weren't intrigued enough already... I know I will deviate from the theme at heart, but I think it all ties together when my feet hit the pavement. That being said, from feet, to heart, to head... my nerves are in full swing.
Let's start from the ground up. FEET. For some reason everything goes wrong on my left side... Lefty has lost 2 toe-nails (GROSS. sparing you the picture.... but don't think I didn't think about it), endured 2 sprained ankles, and is a half size smaller than Righty... making her feel insubordinate and have to work harder on my stride. At the moment a persistent ache/pull is occurring just north of my left ankle. These are the moments I remember when I called on the amazing Dr. Beach. (We'll call him that since he told me he lived by the beach with his I'm sure beautiful wife and beautiful children.) But when I sprained my ankle, Dr Beach would caress it in his strong, moisturized, anti-bacterialized, big hands and all my pain would melt away. If Lefty gets bad enough I might have to stalk him out again for a visit.
Aaaaand... I'm dosing off to my own blog writing. ZZzzzzz. It's been a big weekend, and tomorrow will be a big day... and I will proceed to explain the "heart" part of the matter presented above.
I promise the rest of this will be more engaging. It's only Day 2. I'm getting my groove back. Time to sleep. Like Jenny here.
(I promise I'll keep the Jenny-photos few and far between..... hah.)
