Laps and Lengths and Meters, Oh My!

Hopefully I swim better than I count...it has taken me 15 minutes to figure out how far I swam tonight...(Great Christ I stink at math) -- The good news is, 12 "down & backs" is (a teeny bit) more than 1/3 mile! Shout out to my training team - Iz, Rich & Miss Meghan! Thanks for the support guys. And Iz, thanks for "pointing" out to me that you could see my PIMPS - a/k/a NIPS.

While I am thanking people, I also shout out a thank you to Beth and Meg Herrick, Christie Cannell & Meghan Livingston, and Lisa Molnar for their recent donations! I am almost at my fundraising goal.

Just for training/tracking purposes I do want to give myself credit for running on Saturday. I spotted one of my little Girl Scouts and just HAD to stop to say hello (breathe) and a few streets later I made a point to run by a friend's house hoping to spot her...and I did .. but only after peaking in the window and waving like a mad woman. Again, I HAD to stop to say hello (breathe) - can't be rude! The good news is..I ran longer than I had hoped, and I ran happy. I listened to my Beach to Beacon playlist and it really gets me going.

Anyone want to lend a hand on my 39 for 39 quest? I'd love some suggestions for songs/music to run to... One goal is to make a playlist of 39 songs/artists that are new to me...Please post some suggestions of artists or specific songs that you think I might enjoy! Help me explore new horizons musically!

Gotta get on my bike!

  1. I always listen to and love Brass in Pocket by the Pretenders. It speaks volumes to me and totally pumps me up! You go girl!
