0.7 mile run.
*highly recommended for removing all guilt from one of my favorite meals in the city.

I'm a graphing nerd.
In prep for NYC2008, September 2008 was my biggest month of mileage. Looking back, clearly not enough to get me to reach my goals in the marathon.
Nearly half that running was long, slow distance, including two 18-milers.
6 months later, my approach to running has changed significantly, with an emphasis on frequency and now knowing what it takes to reach my goals in the marathon.
This month, I ran the same amount as Sept 2008, but with no run longer than 11 miles.
As a numbers person, it's nice to have a visual of my progress and I can't wait to race the Brooklyn Half in one month, and for official marathon training to start in a few months.

Who knew?
Bed, Bath and Beyond is officially travel-sized paradise. This picture doesn't even capture half the wall- there was even a ladder to get to the things out of reach. Simply amazing.

I've got nada...
I don't think my desk has been this clean...ever.
(Yes, Gmail is on the screen, yes, the book on my desk is 'My Horizontal Life', and yes, my boss asked what it was about...and if she would like it...)
I obviously have absolutely nothing to say.
Other than this weekend it will be 80 degrees,
and I will be on my roof,
hopefully finding a place where laying out sans top is not offensive or punishable by law.

NYC 2009
$150 later, I will officially have my revenge on the NYC Marathon November 1.
I entered the same 'anticipated finish time' as last year, and this year I realistically know what it's going to take to get there, and am willing and excited to put in the work to do it.
First steps: Building the miles and a PR at the Healthy Kidney 10k the Brooklyn Half Marathon in May.
