Beth-- I ran about 5 miles yesterday via the park and down to Bloomingdales to get new face moisturizer. Today I went to my workout class before work. Focusing on early morning activities to prepare for the big race.

Cannot wait to see photos from Sadie's party.

run

Marcy and Bob ran the 'oh so flat' out and back - taking it easy to get ready for the Chicago 1/2 Marathon next weekend.
Marcy ran 5.65 miles in 53'36" averaging 9:28 min/miles
Bob ran 6.75 miles in 1h 06' averaging 9:48 min/ miles. Marcy ran 5.65 miles in 53'36" averaging 9:28 min/miles. Chirpractor adjusted my ankle and now foot/ shin/ calf / ankle feel great, just a bit sore. Glad I went in and got him to look at it. Chiro said my ankle was "locked"...yikes.
Looking to next Sunday in chicago - temps low of 58 and high of 70. Looks like the lowest temp day of the week. We will keep our fingers crossed.

From the Movie "There's Something about Mary"

Hitchhiker: You heard of this thing, the 8-Minute Abs? Ted: Yeah, sure, 8-Minute Abs. Yeah, the excercise video. Hitchhiker: Yeah, this is going to blow that right out of the water. Listen to this: 7... Minute... Abs. Ted: Right. Yes. OK, all right. I see where you're going. Hitchhiker: Think about it. You walk into a video store, you see 8-Minute Abs sittin' there, there's 7-Minute Abs right beside it. Which one are you gonna pick, man? Ted: I would go for the 7. Hitchhiker: Bingo, man, bingo. 7-Minute Abs. And we guarantee just as good a workout as the 8-minute folk. Ted: You guarantee it? That's - how do you do that? Hitchhiker: If you're not happy with the first 7 minutes, we're gonna send you the extra minute free. You see? That's it. That's our motto. That's where we're comin' from. That's from "A" to "B". Ted: That's right. That's - that's good. That's good. Unless, of course, somebody comes up with 6-Minute Abs. Then you're in trouble, huh? [Hitchhiker convulses] Hitchhiker: No! No, no, not 6! I said 7. Nobody's comin' up with 6. Who works out in 6 minutes? You won't even get your heart goin, not even a mouse on a wheel. Ted: That - good point. Hitchhiker: 7's the key number here. Think about it. 7-Elevens. 7 doors. 7, man, that's the number. 7 chipmunks twirlin' on a branch, eatin' lots of sunflowers on my uncle's ranch. You know that old children's tale from the sea. It's like you're dreamin' about Gorgonzola cheese when it's clearly Brie time, baby. Step into my office. Ted: Why? Hitchhiker: 'Cause you're fuckin' fired!
