Quick update:
Recently ran another 5k (no marathons yet). I did it in 41:35. Not a great time as far as they go, but I basically skipped all prep for this one, because I'm a thin-skinned Floridian that can't handle the arctic blasts we had been getting. It snowed the whole race, which made it miserable in my vibrams. Overall, though, I am proud of my accomplishment. I no longer fear running. I am unstoppable!!!

Ocean Affair
It is about time that I come clean about this... I'm having an affair with the ocean.
In all honesty, it is a life-long ebb and flow relationship. I longed for the mountains growing up and resented the ocean for its vertical challenge and sunburns. Now that I have gotten a taste of the mountains, I miss my oceans dearly. The salty elixir is a heal-all, and I find myself more drawn to it as I age. When life wears at me, I seek comfort in the sand, shells, and symphony of the tide. I dream of sandy toes and a sunburnt nose.
Recently, my love affair has gotten me thinking about working for cruise lines. I always said I would never get on one, but I had no sense of adventure as a girl. Maybe this could get my toes wet for more worldly travels.
