I am a bad blogger.

The title says it all. This is why I will never get rich and famous off a blog. That and I'm sort of boring. Nonetheless!

LATELY:
Addicted to spin classes, but not addicted to waking up at 5 a.m.
Kristin Hannah's book "Night Road" - randomly picked it off the shelf at the library, and finished it in 2 days. I love it when I just happen upon a book and then get totally wrapped up in it.
Go see "Something Borrowed" - better yet, read the book. LOVED the book! The movie of course did not live up to it, but they never do. It has gotten horrible reviews which I don't understand - it's cute and funny, with John Krasinski stealing the show. I really think 90% of the reviewers saw that Kate Hudson was in it, and in order ot be cool, had to totally trash it.

Have not been running nearly as much - mileage before half marathon was mid-20s each week. The past few weeks, it is lucky if I crack 10. Reasons? Heat, No races to train for, Having to divide time between running and the gym, Other excuses. I am looking for a 5K to sign up for in June or July - this will give me something to train for (speed to beat my 26:3 PR).

ALSO, the thing that motivated me to log into Shop Run Rest for the first time in 3 weeks --- Hungry Runner Girl is giving away New Balance minimus shoes!!!!!! Talk about inspiration to go running - if I won those babies I'd be going out every single day! Go to her site to enter!
