Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman

8 miles. Beautiful weather. I ran down by the river while Sarah was at ballet. I love that I have something to do besides sit and wait for her.

I discovered that the podcast for Fresh Air is now free. I loaded a couple episodes on my ipod and got to listen to the Wikipedia guy and some comedians being interviewed by Terri Gross. On the way back, Donna Summer's Greatest Hits! Whoo! Hoo! MacArthur Park!

Anyway, I always manage to start out fast on this route. I feel good, but it always catches up to me. I almost puked at 3 miles, so I slowed it down. No worries. I wore my smooch skirt and a cute pink long bra that I bought from RRS I was feeling sexy, fit, and athletic. Ok, with my hair in pigtails, I was still feeling alot like Mary Hartman too, but a hot Mary Hartman. I finished in 1:19; average pace 9:49. I'll take it.


Mile 1: 9:27
Mile 2: 9:04
Mile 3: 10:00
Mile 4: 10:15
Mile 5: 10:46
Mile 6: 9:49
Mile 7: 10:15
Mile 8: 9:59

8 more miles in the Shines. Today they felt good. My lower right calf and achilles are a little sore, but I really can't attribute this to the shoes. 13 miles shoe total

I laughed SO hard when I saw the title of your post today!

For the rest of the day, I just know, I'll hear "mary HARTman, mary HARTman."

Your pace looked fantastic! What a great run. (Skirt, top, a massage, AND newly colored hair! Very nice).


P.S.-anyone in Soap that you can relate to?
