Here I am with some of my winnings haha:

 

CONGRATULATIONS SALTY!!!

and AAAAAAAAAAAAAH MAKE ME UNSEE IT!!! Isn't that kind of thing illegal in WA? After all, kids could be around.

I know. I am sorry for sharing but I feel as though it's party of my own coping. lol

Ughhh. I am absolutely sure it's illegal. It was a pretty main road too. I try to be uhh forward thinking but the whole scene put me over the edge.

Asalzwed - 2013-02-05 3:09 AM Oh yeah, apparently the nearly 350 miles I ran last month took a toll on my poor running tights. I blew out the calf right on the seam. Sighhhh. 

Hot baby moos. Hot baby moo! It just couldn't be held back anymore.

Are you calling me a cow? Again?

Speaking of, I was hanging out with my nieces and I asked if I could have a Cheeto and she said, "No. You are way too big."

Nice. I like her. You should hang out with her more often.

You kind of look like a Cheeto. Long, skinny, red-adorned, although not crooked. Probably delicious.

Awesome! Maybe that means she'll move out sooner. Any idea what the fight was about?

I (and you!) would probably be a lot more sympathetic if your in-laws had helped you much in Greece, but they didn't. Too bad.

Why oh why do I look at the monthly totals thread?!? My volume is as high as many of them. My distance, however, not so much.

Started my 30 runs in 30 days today, I also found 3 more races I will be able to do before leaving Alaska. I am happy about those. They are a 5k, a timed hill run max 7.6 miles and a 7.1 mile. I am also going to be able to get back to swimming today. I am really looking forward to it.

You should plan races for all of the locations you are visiting on you road trip

I don't even bother with distances--rarely I'll take a segment of a run and even more rarely an entire run and just see how I'm trotting along, if it's anywhere near where I should be according to how I'm feeling and conditions, etc. I do swim by distance but I actually don't pay much attention to the total time it takes, which is really arbitrary in swimming anyway as it's broken up into sets with rest intervals and often between sets as well.

In any case, I'm outstanding at ignoring other people :D I try not to let this be a fault.

Wow, that was tough but I overcame temptation! Free food leftover from a meeting was put out at the 'vulture bar', including the HUGE, yummalicious cookies from Panera.  After standing there staring at them for at least a minute trying to decide if I was going to take a whole one, half of one or 1/4 of one, I chose to walk away, go get my yogurt out of the fridge and eat that.  Yikes!  FYI cookies are a major weakness for me.

I salute you!

I have no such courage. Unfortunately, I feel myself irresistibly drawn to make peanut butter cookies ... yet again.

Gosh that is the worst. I have something in my blood that just make me a total sucker for free stuff so, that combined with FOOD is just danger. 

Nice, nice, NICE work. I'm super impressed.

Wow, you are awesome. We did a daytrip in the car yesterday. About 2.5 hours each way. I was pretty good until our last "pit stop". Then I bought some knock-off Ding Dongs at the gas station. Yell In my defense, I am ALWAYS hungry these days.

What's the typical mileage/volume in these 30/30 challenges? I've seen other positive responses from them and curious just how much running in addition to normal volume that it is
