Mad Manatee Mentors, Part 2! CLOSED (Page 103)

Artemis - 2013-03-07 11:45 AM I ordered two new pairs of shoes today: new everyday shoes and new running shoes.  My new running shoes are charcoal and pink! Nothing gives you motivation to start running again like new cute shoes. 

Fun!

Oh, I don't know about that.  I don't find cute shoes particularly motivating. 

You just haven't found the right pair

Crazy. 

I know it's a tough decision. You'll be fine, you'll make the right choice when it's time, and the Manatees will be behind you all the way! Either way you get to see her Yanti-ness!

AWESOME!!!  It should be a great experience.

I was having lunch yesterday with a friend, who is training for Boston, and a couple of his associates.  He and I were talking about our races and one of the associates asked if I was training for a marathon as well (I wanted to say that Boston isn't just any marathon, but I digress). My friend explained to his associate that I am doing a HIM and explained the distances. The associate said "All in one day?"

Ha!!!!!!!

If you are anxious, the dreams seem pretty normal.  Happens to me all the time when I'm stressign about something!

I thin whatever decision you make will be the right one for YOU and that's what's the most important. 

Have you ever had a BACON EXPLOSION

That's insane! But it brings up a good Manatee question. How do you like your bacon? I like crispy, not burned.

You rock. You'll be fine. That is all

Thanks! Much appreciated...I guess I will have to train or something....

Nooooo. Don't freak...ok, just a little. Took my DH 3 months to convince me to do my first one. I'm not fast, nor will ever be a "racer", but that first one was really amazing   Congrats!

I have one in my freezer, waiting for a special occasion.

Often!!!!

Woot-woot! Yep. Wore mine last night. Happy feet again

The answer is to:

1. Have fun!!!!
2. Smile
3. Breathe
4. Train

That is all.

you're running with the wrong girls clearly

I'm sure he means he's just not looking at the shoes. Remember the rule "Eyes up! Eyes up!"

On someone else's plate.

Just run lots, mostly easy blah blah blah
