No! Running! Til Sunday!

NOT RUNNING ANYWHERE FOR A WHILE?
I'll be honest, I've fallen off the wagon.  I have not run since the big move and have a 5k coming up on Sunday.  Luckily I have been hitting the gym pretty hard so my fitness level hasn't completely gone away.  (Is there such a thing as a fitness level or am I making that phrase up?)  I've decided to take a sabatical from running until the end of May so I can focus on school and try to put on some muscle in the gym.

MY FIRST DOCUMENTARY...
I'm going to film my entire race day on Sunday, from the moment I get up to the moment I make it to my car after the race festivities are through.  I think I'll just cut it up into clips, speed it up, and set it to music.

HERE'S MUD IN YOUR EYE!
I feel pretty good about myself because I talked 4 of my coworkers into running the DFW mud run in November.  Now getting them to train so they don't fall out during the event will be another task.
