notovernight replied to your post: Schedule changes…
Wow, hope no one made travel arrangements already. Or like my old job already committed to vacation for the year.
Well, there are several unhappy people over at the Run Disney Facebook page - there are definitely people who had already scheduled vacation and made travel plans. Roswell and I had an idea of what we were going to do and I...
"Oh, the Weather Outside is Frightful" -aka-...
thereluctantrunner:
In case you haven’t noticed…it’s winter. Actually, the Winter Solstice occurred today at 12:30am, but for all intents and purposes…December dictates that it’s winter. We in the Northeast have gotten off to a relatively mild start, and even today, it’s a balmy 50 degrees outside. If you’re like me…and the thought of a treadmill scares you and makes you want to run for the...
Schedule changes...
Yesterday, Run Disney announced they were moving the Wine & Dine Half Marathon to November to accommodate their reintroduction of the Tower of Terror (now) ten miler.
They’ve moved Wine & Dine to the last weekend of the festival. Meaning two things: if you go the week before the race, you enjoy lots of different foods a few days before the race and risk having a severely upset...
This is the best thing in the world.

Heather, you know as your FitBud, I’m supposed to be sending YOU things, right?
Just a small thank you for being such a great FitBud and an amazing inspiration!

A bit of silliness..: My first ever GIVEAWAY!!! →
abitofsilliness:
I am so excited.
I created a calendar on Shutterfly.com with some favorite pictures from our New Zealand trip. Inexplicably, they charged us for one but sent us TWO!
:^O & :^D
(Now, if I was in a store and was given something I hadn’t paid for, of course I’d go back in and resolve the mistake….
:D
Anonymous asked: I got your package in the mail today. It will be coming UPS so it should be there on Friday I hope. ~Secret Santa

I need to do one of these!
Eh. I wouldn’t recommend RAM Racing or any of their races based on this race. It was completely disorganized and just plain awful:
Hot Chocolate 15K/5K Race Called ‘Epic Fail’ (via dcist.com)
Race turns into ‘a train wreck’ for runners, residents (via The...

Just found out that I might lose all of the steps I’ve taken to make my work environment more enjoyable. Great…
Nothing like a few tears to get you up, away from your desk and in the gym.

Jess of EasyBeingGreene and I are meeting tomorrow morning outside Mayorga Coffee Shop which is supposedly near the starting line. I’m heading down there at 5:45am, so hopefully we can meet about 6:45am, but there are 22,000 of us and word on the street is that this is the only coffee shop open…
Hot Chocolate Expo
notovernight:
For those going today, bring your wallets. PR is the entire expo according to my wife, but there are some great deals.
Adria picked up a pair of Brooks Defiance for 30th bucks and they had Vibrams for 50.
I’ll keep that in mind!
So one thing I did to make my job and time at work more enjoyable is request a flex schedule. I work Monday through Thursday 7 to 4:30, one Friday 7 to 3:30 and have every other Friday off. So today is my first Friday off! :) and I’m glad because I’ve got a lot to do today!
