Day 18

Hello all.

I apologize for my recent lack of posts. I assure you that it is no reflection of how I'm doing out there on the road. Still jogging, still going strong. In all honesty, (sorry to my male audience for what's about to come next), I just started my period which for me feels a lot like large rats are trying to burrow their way out of my uterus. Add some nausea and general bathroom problems and labor ought to be a breeze, am I right? Ha ha...oh me...

Anyway, I've been experiencing more than normal fatigue. I usually go to bed pretty early so I gain more energy from my runs than anything else, but lately it's like I've hit a gigantic wall. Now I know why.

Speaking of which, any female athletes have any tips for pushing through this kind of thing? It is ALWAYS sickness that stops me from continuing exercise. I'm actually pretty proud of myself for getting up this morning because it was a challenge. And it was even more of a challenge to run. I just felt so spent. I've fallen asleep at least three times trying to write this only to be awoken by one of my uterus rats gaining some progress. Calm down, you!

I feel weird about posting this. Love me?

Oh, so I have good news. I have a sponsor! My handsome dad! He sent a couple bucks my way and I was able to get some good running gear. I already had a decent pair of shoes so I got some good pants and a couple good shirts. I also got a runners pack that buckles around my waist so I can put my keys and phone in it. It's pretty much a fanny pack but runners pack sounds better and less...tourist-y? Also, I got some mace. That's right. Wanna know the best part? It looks like lip stick! PAH! Hello Mr. Rapist? You'd like to attack me? Let me just put on ma blip-blam real quick. POW! MACE IN THE FACE! The other cool thing about it is it has a red die in it that marks the attacker so when the police ask what he looks like you can say, "It's the dude coughing like a maniac with all the red crap on his face." Done. Crisis averted. So now I have a dog and some mace. I'm pretty much good to go.

My master plan is to do a little photo shoot/fashion show on Saturday so ya'll get to see all my super sweet gear. *Disclaimer* Fat may or may not spill out the sides of ma pants. They're a little small but not disgustingly small. Just enough for the muffin top to be all like, "Haaaay guuurrrll!"

Yeah little does muffin top know that she's getting fired. You know cause I'm 'burning' fat? Get it? It's funny because burning, and fired?..like fire burns?...

Okay, I'm way too tired to be comunicating with people. I'm gonna stop before I lose more friends.

Love in the club.

  1. This is my favorite post of my whole life! You are so funny! I tried to share this post with Bryan but he is too busy playing with his stupid dogs so he no longer deserves to know the funnies. I get them all to myself.

    1. Okay, if Bryan isn't interested in every little detail in my life then he doesn't get to know anything. I'll have a child and he wont know until it's like, thirteen years old. So you can tell him THAT! ;)

  3. Oh my gosh, dad is TOTALLY handsome. Creepy? Whatever. No shame.
    I'm proud of your gear and excited to see pics!

    Also, Maniac? All I can think of is that girl in the video who shakes her 80s bootie like there is no tomorrow! I hope you do that on the trail once in a while. :)

    1. There is AMPLE amounts of booty shaking. Every runner that passes always ends up being VERY jealous of my Flashdance booty.
