Pasta Party!

I'm so excited, because today is the Fort Bend Fit Pasta Party!! The speaker will be Jeff Galloway!!! How cool is that? This event always gets me inspired beyond belief. As I get ready for my first half (but my 9th major event - 5 marathons and 3 ultra-marathons) it makes me pause and reflect on the reasons I do this. Insanity may jump to some of your lips, but actually, I run for my sanity. Imagine what I would be like without it!! I run for my health, and I run because I can. I will miss seeing my mom out there on the course, but I'll have her cross pin on my bib. Hubba Nine and Sweet Lou will be out there on their bikes to cheer me on. And FBF will be a force, as usual, cheering each other on, and running each other in!!

I have to thank Hubba Nine for gently nudging back into my running routine! His little call last week prompted two weekly runs and a Saturday long run. I'm planning on three short weekly runs this week and a half marathon on Sunday! I also want to publicly admit that when Sassy said Hubba Nine made her think I was saying he was Hubby # Nine, and I said, "Like I'd do that nine times!" I meant with nine different men. I marry Hubba Nine nine times! Are you wanting to renew our vows or something, sweetie?
