The SMACKDOWN!

SO!!!!!! I woke up this morning, sent off two hippie looking children to elemetary school (today was hippie day) and suprisingly I didnt have to do much to make them look like it... kissed Seth goodbye as Danny took him to school, made snack for my bible study group, went to bible study, came home did dishes (like a massive amount of dishes) folded some laundry, arranged the pillows on the couch, put on some comfy pants and running shoes, updated my facebook status and hit the pavement.

Everything above is an excuse for me to put off running. My point is, I wanted to use these excuses.. I SOOOOOOOO wanted to use these excuses. IIII could have even gave in to how late in the day it was... but I didn't. I went and I feel PHENOMENAL. and some of you are thinking "well GOOD FOR YOU!" and I want it to be GOOD for you too.. NO!!!!! i want it to be GREAT! do it with me!

Last night I noticed I was trying to get a cold. or maybe just allergies... whatever.. my nose was on the fritz and I already started to think about today's run. Could I run like this??? (in my investigative voice) not being able to breathe properly ... especially when controlling my breathing is such a battle for me without a stuffy nose.

When I went to bible study this morning I spoke to another lady who runs as well. I asked her (secretly hoping for the answer I wanted) "Do you still run with a runny/stuffy nose? like do people still do run when they have colds?" and to my delight (-->enter sarcasm) she said "Yes, of course!" -_____-

See... not only am I 'running' out of excuses (pun intended..get it?? "running out of excuses"... get it??) okay, nevermind... but my excuses are beginning to get a bit more creative. **and desperate** My excuses are trying to find a loophole to NOT run.

but the runner in me laid the SMACKDOWN! BAM! I danced on today's excuses and *ran* all over them. HA! okay, I'll stop.

GET OUT AND RUN, MOVE, DANCE, PLAY AND LAY SOME SMACKDOWN!!!!

today's run was motivated by: THE BLACK EYED PEAS: PUMP IT! (ciaooo baby and I did!)
