Feeling drunk on it today! It appears my workouts are working.
Got out on this dark, rainy afternoon for a set of 6x880s. Happy to report, I am showing progress, not only in the speed of my intervals, but I also cut 30 seconds off my recoveries and even jogged them a tad faster than before.
Splits were 3:36, 3:39, 3:35, 3:40, 3:38, 3:35. And this includes some indigestion on the run for having eaten left-over Indian food about an hour before departing…because I’m stupid like that.
How satisfying to look upon my calendar and see I have 5 more quality days (3 tempos and 2 intervals or vice versa) until the Clean Air 5K. Add to that two 16-milers, a one-mile time-trial plus a handful of easy days and it all comes out to a useful block of development time before the big day.
And with that, my dear readers, I am on my way to the bathroom where a box of brown hair dye awaits. Yes, after 9 months of being various shades and stripes of blonde, I am going back to the old familiar color scheme. I dreamt about it last night and have been looking at old pictures, getting a little sentimental about that brunette I used to know.
So out with the new, back in with the old. Here I go for my extreme makeover. (Oh, Preference 5A Medium Brown, please don’t leave me looking like a big old bore…)

Once again we both did intervals, my splits on my blog.
Do any woman leave there hair the natural color?? Hope it comes out B E A UTIFULLLLL!!
Bruce! What is your blog address again?? You don’t post it in your sig line or profile on RW (and you should!!). Also, you can add the address to your name on your posts here, just edit the post and there’s a slot for it. Gonna hunt around to find it, but if you pop in here, let us all know, please. Thanks!

Nag, nag, nag. I will add it to sig line in RW later.
Lol, someone’s gotta bitch at you, I sense you’re missing that from your life.
Damn, that’s a great workout you did, 8 of them and after another hard day! I’m impressed bigtime. And how is it that we’re always doing intervals on the same day? (not to mention they’re pretty close in time, as well) It’s Kismet, I tell you!
Also, you reminded me to write the splits in real time, I put them in as pace time (that’s the only one I really understand
) . Must go edit now…
Wow! Great job!
ps–let me know if brown hair makes you even faster…I’ll make an appt. with my hair salon toot-sweet!
Of course after you redo your hair you have to post a new pic so I can replace the race pic I have of you on my wallpaper
Brunettes DO have more fun. At least they understand the fun they are having. Haha, jk. I never was a stereo-type joker. I just wanted to +1 on Tobey’s request for a photo. I’ve also been thinking about a box of….yes,…I’ll admit it, grey coverage. With brown hair, it sticks out quite a bit.
Can’t wait to see the new/old you!!
TGIF!
Hah, I just love you guys! It’s dark. Scary. And yes, definitely a new photo is in order since the graphic for this site is now obsolete. Soon, soon…
Pokey, if it makes me faster then I’m going to stop with the leg/pit-shaving and dye those hairs, too.
Tobey, what a lovable stalker you are!
Amy, seeing as you just had a birthday yesterday, it might be a treat to go for it, my friend resisted a long time and when she finally covered the grey she told me she felt like a new woman.
Did I mention I love you guys?
Flo, you never fail to crack me up! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
and back at ya on the love!
Stalker, me? I always stand here on the corner, by your house, in the rain, unh with my camera…
