Taken from a Facebook Note I wrote just over 3 years ago:

"...this one night- one very small 5k here on campus- was probably the thing that i am most proud of for achieving...
...what's a simple 2-3 miler for some is a lifelong milestone for someone like me, who once really thought she was invincible but learned the truth."

I'm Kind of a Big Deal (pshhh hahaha!)

Hey guys, guess what? I kicked major butt today!!! Yup, that's right, another well-earned exclamatory sentence with too many exclamation points. Why?

I ran
4 whole miles today without stopping!

Here are the stats: 41:30 for 4 miles, 10:28 pace, plicas still intact. They're pretty swollen right now, but nothing like they were the last run. Looks like the electrode treatment the trainer gave me yesterday might have actually done some good. I do believe I'll be trying that out again!

Ahh... time for bed. :)

  1. Haha, I don't think that's quite how you spell it. So proud of you Julie...although not at all surprised that you accomplished something you put your mind (and body) to.

  2. One knee said to the other, "Does this run make me look fat?" The other knee replied, "I heard getting electrified gives you a slimmer look." Be careful out there. How about using a knee brace ace bandage thingy majoby while your running?

  3. Haha, Momma, you're so cute. That actually made me laugh out loud! You know me, I don't really do braces. I try, but I look ridiculous and they're just too cumbersome. I think I'll stick to getting "electrified" for the time being. :)

    Collin- Thanks for the advice, no matter how you spelled it. :)

    Thanks, Chris! That means a lot to me. :)

    (That's right, you all deserved smiley faces. No reason to be jealous that way. hehe!)
