I got a 3-inch blister during my first Ironman that left a concave hole in the side of my foot that took 6 months to heal. I fell really hard running in Central Park on a bridle path and lacerated my elbow so badly I thought I'd need stitches. I'm covered with scars and damn proud of them! :)<br /><br />I had the best lunch ever yesterday. Pecan crusted chicken on a giant Jerusalem bagel pressed with cheese, some delicious sauce and tomatoes.

MAJOR. i have memories of running with my dad in Park City Utah and literally tripping over some pebbles. This led to lots of asphalt in my hands and some tears while my dad had to pick it all out. I've also fallen on ice, fallen on nothing, ripped my clothes, you name it. Yikes. Hopefully you feel better about yourself now, ha!<br /><br />And I totally have "my" treadmill at the gym.

I jogged/limped 2 miles home with a bloody knee and elbow. This was one week before my first half marathon. I walked like an old man for 2-3 days after and I had a giant nasty bruise. But I ran my half marathon the next week, pain free!<br /><br />Lunch: free cheese pizza at work. my team won a contest which got us free pizza. I brought a healthy side salad and pasta w/chicken sausage & veggies, but took the easy and quick pizza. I had meetings all day and the pizza was closer than my office w/my lunch.<br /><br />Favorite gym equipment: Well, my first favorite is group classes. My second I guess is the treadmill with a tv. The new ones even have fans built in which is awesome, unless you are 5'2" and therefore too short to benefit. :(RunningOnCoffeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00715671909290199683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6441321654725706224.post-80351205426641857722011-02-09T21:19:25.840-07:002011-02-09T21:19:25.840-07:00so im pretty sure ive been reading your blog for a...so im pretty sure ive been reading your blog for a few weeks. ijust had a baby and am starting to run and you are so amazing at making me want to run again! oh and we totally go to the same gym...nice maybe one day ill be as fast as you ...ha doubt it oh and my favorite tredmill is right next to the only stair stepper there!the militonishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13774402577791206447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6441321654725706224.post-22446127165926814752011-02-09T21:00:18.338-07:002011-02-09T21:00:18.338-07:00Yeah.
