A Tuesday List

I don't know about you guys but I already feel like it is Friday. This week has been eventful enough for a whole month for me and it's only Tuesday. So, hey, let's celebrate with a list:

1) There are several things that you see when you jog in a small town:

  • stray dogs getting it on at the American Legion Hall
  • chickens that didn't quite make it across the road
  • almost every person you know that lives in town
  • strange looks from most people that can't understand why you would run when there are such things as moving vehicles to get you from one place to another
2) I have had three first in my running this week:
  • I got bit by a dog and have a nasty bruise and it broke the skin. I am now carrying a stun gun when I run that route. 
  • I ran an 8 min mile the last mile of my five mile run yesterday. Pace PR.
  • I ran 9.66 miles today. Distance PR. 
3) I have been wanting to do something drastic. This happens to me in the winter when I start to feel like a caged animal. I was thinking about cutting off all my hair that I have worked so hard to grow out. I made a command decision that I cannot have short hair until I am rich/brave/ridiculous enough to get fake boobs. I'm not feminine enough otherwise to pull off a short hair cut. 

4) I have not lost any weight in three weeks and it is kinda pissing me off. Here is me breaking my "the scale doesn't matter" rule. But I have been busting my ass and I'm feeling a little ripped off. I need to go back and read #2 again. 

5) The college I am doing my MBA at was just named the most prestigious college in Idaho. This might be the first time EVER in my life that the word prestigious and anything related to me has landed in the same sentence. 

6) I have gotten involved with one of my communities oldest fundraisers that is an emergency fund for the town. I cannot tell you how much I love being a part of this community and being around all the people that make it so great. 

7) I am stretching my time to the limits this week. Sitting down to write this list is just a way of me procrastinating something else that I have either forgotten about or don't want to do. I can't remember which.

8) I had a guest lecturer at school today. The topic was ethics. The lecturer was in his 50's, dressed like a hipster, rocking a beard and a man bun, and still managed to get me thinking with all those distractions. Good on him!

9) I am getting hungry for football food... Anybody else ready for Superbowl? Raise of hands if you want the Bronco's to get it done!! All those for the Panthers???!!! How 'bout those of you that are just happy you don't have to watch Tom Brady make another play this season??? That's me.

10) Happy Tuesday. Push your limits this week. Do something crazy. Or talk yourself out of something crazy. Either way.
