September 25, 2012
My motivation is so far out the window right now it is simply a spec
in the sky. Given that I was not born with a runner’s body, I suppose
that is a large portion of my problem. Foot pain, bursitis pain (only 9
more days until my next cortisone shot)…and for some reason, I’ve been
dizzy and off balance since I went to Vegas. I’m also slightly bummed
that I have about 17 days that I can cram 116 miles in so I can reach
Nike+ Blue Level. I’m thinking I need to give up on that…I’m not seeing
a way to average almost 7 miles a day without Nike bringing back up the
pedometer server (jerks!) or dropping $150 on a Fuel Band so it tracks
EVERYTHING. Work weeks are killer lately and this is an 8 day work
week. I need MORE time.
All whining aside, I am VERY excited to meet up with the Team
Victorious girls, get my Tiffany’s necklace, drool over firemen in
tuxedos, eat chocolate and hang with a dear friend from back in
Virginia. I believe the exact date of the last time we hung out was
February 27, 2005. We fell asleep in the closet (it was a big closet)
while waiting for the movers to pack the van so I could move to
Arizona. She was living in Key West when I went back for my reunion so I
didn’t get to see her then. It should be a good time – and it will be
wonderful to have someone at the finish line. I just hope I don’t cry
when I finish this – I’ve seen a picture of a hill and it just made
everything hurt by looking at it!
