10k pics

Got the pics today from the Ottawa Race Weekend 10k. Normally they are all hideous, but Stephanie & I purposely sought out the photogs for post-race snaps.

 

(My actual time was 1:22:07- still slow, but the clock is even slower- it took about 8 minutes to get to the starting line!!)

I'm alive.

Post-10k, I'm feeling kinda sore but I'm alive. More than can be said for the multiple people my sister said she saw on stretchers, wheelchairs and wrapped in thermal blankets on the side of the road. I might not classify it as a run (i dramatically told Stephanie to "go on without me") since I walked more than half, but whatever. Lesson learned, your body will still take you 10k but a lot slower than you'd hoped when you don't train properly!

We made a pact to do the half-marathon next year. So, no excuses to slack on the running anymore!!

10k

I am running my 10k this Saturday in Ottawa. If I don't blog about my successful completion shortly thereafter, I have died.

the crane tree

My goal is to create one of these crane trees as seen in 500 Days of Summer.
I just need to find a pot and some twigs!

On a Zooey Deschanel note, I have discovered a (local!) friend who is equally Zooey obsessed and would pay to see She & Him in concert next month, purely based on Zooey and not so much the music.

so many memories!

I wasn't lying when I said I'd get on organizing my photos to print a few. Little did I know what a monumental task that would be. All in order to face the impossible task of selection about a dozen photos from 18 months of backpacking, not to mention all the places I've been since I got home.
ACK.
How's everyone spending the long weekend? I'm being boring, relaxing, and hopefully catching up on stuff I typically avoid.. aka cleaning.

my 6 seconds of fame

(And thats 6 seconds in 3 separate clips lol! I just watched the S2E4 aftershow online to scope it out!)
The camera adds 10lbs, just throwing it out there!
Did you know their "martinis" are actually Vitamin water?

I also won a sweet sweet Aveda prize. (Well, my friend Jeff actually won it but felt bad for me. Nicest friend!!)

i love lamp

As for pics of the completed room.. I'm so horrible it's not done. I bought a stupid "hard drive" that actually is the lamest thing ever and I've been procrastating the ridiculous process I have to go through to get my pics off it. I swear, I'm going to do it RIGHT NOW.
