The problem with blogging...

Once I've posted there is no turning back...

100 days of running update...

I wish I never blogged that I would do 100 days of running, I had actually forgotten about it until today when a friend emailed me asking how it was going...

Now I have to blog about my failure... that always feels good!
I should cut myself some slack, it's not a complete fail.  I will succeed in 70 out of 100 days running, which is not too bad...  it's not nearly the same as saying "100 days of running! I'm awesome!" 

But 70% got me into Queen's and it also got me into teacher's college (in Australia, where I paid a million dollars tution as an international student ...but that's besides the point...)

So 70 out of 100 can't be that bad!  However I'm not yet at the 100 mark, to be honest I'm not even sure when 100 days will be up... as you can see I really thought this one through...

But running is going well, and along side of running 5-6 days a week, I have been doing quite a few xcountry races, well 5 so far in total.  I need 6 to be able to win the grand prix, which would be cool.  I've been doing pretty well, won 3, and placed the other 2, so I've got a chance.  Next weekend I'll be racing again.  They are just so much fun. 

I am still not sure about a spring or fall marathon, leaning more towards a fall, which will give me a whole summer or focused training... no work to get in the way! 

Ok, that's all the news.
