Guest guest Posted July 1, 2010 Report Share Posted July 1, 2010 I went running for the first time in about a week today during lunch, and it felt soooooo good! Quite a few nice things happened:1) on my way to the Sweat Shop this guy I don't even know complimented me on my summer dress and said he had seen me earlier and thought " wow, what a great dress! " I bought this dress last year and it didn't fit me, and now it fits great! 2) my pace seemed faster today. I never time myself, but I could tell I was going faster.3) as I was going up the first set of steel grating inclines, a very handsome and muscular african-american man smiled at me, said hello, and gave me a " thumbs up " It started to sprinkle as I crossed over the Hawthorne Bridge and my favorite song on the whole playlist came on, " Dr.Beat " the Miami Sound Machine VS Mylo Stop the Pressure Mix. I look forward to running again tomorrow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 6, 2010 Report Share Posted July 6, 2010 yea.. you are my hero !!I am hoping to start to swim after work one night a week... starting this thurs - if work permits.. (ie not here to all hours!)judy in DCFrom: Pink Pussycat <pinkpussycat@...> Sent: Tue, July 6, 2010 4:22:15 PMSubject: today's Esplanade Run The battery in my iPod was dead so I had to run to the sounds of the city today. I saw two of my friends/coworkers walking along the Steel Bridge and I yelled, "Move it, Slowpokes!!" which earned me a swat on the tush from Steve's baseball cap. It is beautiful outside today and once again I am grateful to 1) be able to run 3 miles without stopping 2) run mid-day at work like this 3) take an extra shower during the day. Hope to do this again tomorrow! I'm starting to get a little tan, which is cool. Oregonians don't see the sun very much (think of the movie Twilight, it's like that) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
