Okay, so I’m lying in bed this morning contemplating getting up before the alarm goes off at 05:30, and thinking about what on earth will I talk about today on the blog.
The furnace is on a timer which doesn’t click in until 05:35, so my house is really quite cool at 62 degrees until the furnace switches on, so if I do get up I’m really going to freeze.
Pulling the covers up higher around me and still thinking about what to write about, I wait it out.....come on furnace!
Still nothing of shock nor value is coming to me so I decide to write about what was discussed on Clinic night at the
Running Room on Tuesday night.
Proper fitting shoes and having them fit for your foot configuration (either you supinate or pronate, very few up us are balanced and equal in foot strike). This means balance and cushioning are key and necessary depending upon the distances you’ll be running while training for your event! Okay, I can "run" with this topic.....
Great!! Now I have something else to discuss...I’m on a roll, okay, since we are in deep winter here in Ottawa, winter running apparel was also a topic on Tuesday night....layering....."cotton is rotten", so layering with wicking (not wicked) technical tops and long underwear....
okay, let’s see, all the necessities of lip gloss with SPF, sun screen slathered on your face and hands, yes even in winter...I’m so excited....this is going to be a breeze, my brain is really ramping up.....
I leap out of bed....the cat is scurrying around, she is
just not use to me being so fired up this early in the morning....I’m on a mission .... the cat is fed, coffee is on and I power up the gateway to the world.....hah, my first sip of coffee, cobwebs are gone and...........
WOW, a new visitor....
NAT.....I love new visitors’ and she’s from Ottawa!
How cool is that....I quickly flip over to Nat’s blog and much to my surprise and horror, which quickly turned into gratitude, Nat had written about the very topics that I was still trying to compose in my brain....and the bonus is Nat did a way better job then I would ever be able to do this early in the morning!!!
Hey, were you at the same clinic???
THANKS NAT, and WELCOME.......
well, my job is done.....Life's fun if you don't weaken!
Enjoy your journey, one step at a time

Don't know about all of you but I was having trouble with Blogger, he just wasn't playing nice over the weekend and well, I kept losing my Internet connection as well.....so this will be short and sweet as I'm here at work. Yes, robbing the company of valuable time, LOL....
