pm workwork--I went to the LRS for a fun run. I got a free pair of balega (sp?) socks. I love these socks and normally they are 14 bucks so this is nice.

Plus I felt like I did pretty well on this run since it was like 90 degrees! I was alone for most of it. I think a lot of people started out too fast b/c I kept picking them off. It was definitely a confidence booster for me.

day eight of no caffeine soda! Yeah!

Nice on the free socks. Those are nice ones. No caffeine and no soda! I would never think of drinking soda, but beware of an uncaffeinated me.

Awesome race and a great pace. You're looking good for your half.

Congratulations on kicking the soda.

A coworker bought me lunch today, including a soda. I drank it. It was gross like syrup. I felt sick after. Now I feel guilty too. Thanks :)

that is what I keep telling myself--it is gross and you won't like it!

Ah, you know you are a runner when you get excited about free socks! Good job and glad you have some confidence after this!

Sorry to chime in so late! That's a nice fast race! Good job.
