I had a bunch of "things I've learned/realized this week" floating around in my head during my trip to Kroger tonight. So, here they are!
1) I need to eat before running anything more than 4 miles. That was this morning's lesson (and led to skipping the 5K race after doing the 10K race).
2) No matter how much you want ice cream, don't give in the night before a race (but damn, that turtle sundae was good).
3) Priorities are good. Especially when you have to pack your office by Thursday and have a big quarterly meeting you're planning that happens on Friday.
4) It's amazing how much easier it is to clean the refrigerator out when the dog isn't trying to get into the trash bag.
5) It's also amazing how much quieter it seems without said dog around.
6) I apparently hold my arms really high when I run, allowing others to figure out if it's me from a distance.
7) I only have so much tolerance for fake people. And it's not much.
8) #7 can also be applied to most people that comment on news stories online. Though it seems I have less tolerance for them.
9) "No" is a wonderful word. People (including me) should use it more often.
10) Shin splits hurt, but are better than a groin pull.
11) The Lonely Island's "I'm On a Boat" easily gets stuck in my head.
12) My super power is not having to wear gloves while running in below freezing temperatures.
