War - Poets of the Fall
A sample of the lyrics from my new favorite song:
Do you remember standing on a broken field White crippled wings beating the sky The harbingers of war with their nature revealed And our chances flowing by If I can let the memory heal I will remember you with me on that field When I thought that I fought this war alone You were there by my side on the frontline When I thought that I fought...
Highlight of my afternoon by far...
…is the fact that Tenacious D’s “Tribute” just played on my iPod. :)

March is definitely leaving like a lion...
…Due to the rainy/winter conditions today in the STL, my 5 mile tempo run was done on a treadmill. Ugh. How did I survive the 50 minutes of boredom? Well, let’s break it down:
1. Video Podcast from one of the sermons I missed at church. Excellent stuff that kept my eyes off the clock - 35 mins
2. Jason Derulo album - definitely not the peppiest music when I’m wanting...
Run Report
A quick catch up on the running:
Missed our tempo run last week due to scheduling conflicts, but I’m not going to beat myself up over it. I was able to cross train and found myself at Sunday ready for the long run of the week - 6 miles. Lovely that it rained for that hour plus.
Tonight was back to the track - same speed workout as last week with the same results - 2:05, 2:05, 2:08, and...

Thanks to Semper Reformanda for posting the updated trailer.
I always wondered what happened to Kevin Flynn post Tron — guess now we’ll find out. :)

Back to Running
Tonight marked the first official night of 1/2 marathon training…and what a way to start with some speedwork!
-20 min warm up jog
-4x400 speed repeats with 2 min cooldown in between
-10 min cool down jog/walk
I should have been hitting 2:15 on my 400’s, but managed to squeak out 2:05, 2:05, 2:10, and 2:08. I’ll take it!
In other news, I chopped off all my hair. So if you...

A Question...
…Is it wrong that I want to watch the Ice Castles remake?
I do, however, prefer the tagline of the 1978 version: “When tragedy struck, love came to the rescue”. Original pictured below:

Another Gloomy Morning
I’m having such a hard time with the weather these mornings. This entire week I have either overslept and/or suffered from a cramping headache as soon as I awoke. I am left feeling utterly exhausted, even though I’m getting plenty of sleep. I was so flustered trying to leave the house this morning that I did something I have not ever done — forgot my wedding ring. I realized...

To top off this horrible day from hell...
…I just tripped on the strap of my shoulder bag and fell onto the floor outside my cube. Classy.
