I hope all of you who were hammered by snow this weekend are safely digging out! We got only a few inches…made for a festive but slippery 6-miler yesterday and a beautiful 10 this morning.
Look Who I’ll be Chasing in Boston! Meb Keflezighi and Ryan Hall have both signed on to run The Boston Marathon next year.
Woot! Woot!
Woot! Woot!
My Newest Running Partner Thanks to Saundra at Fitness for Foodies, I scored this sweet Nathan Quick-Draw handheld. I took it out for a spin on today’s 10 miler. After fighting the inclination to slip my hand all the way through the strap to make it more of a ‘wrist corsage’ (dork) I quickly got used to it and really enjoyed it. Plus there’s a great zipper pocket that can hold keys, fuel, pepper spray, whatever you like. Thanks again Saundra!
And finally, the Hundred Pushup Challenge Revisited: For full effect, please cue up Aaron Copeland’s Fanfare for the Common Man…go ahead, I’ll wait.
Ok ready?
After a disappointing attempt at that elusive 100, I repeated week 6.
I Made 100 Pushups My Biotch!
Wonders truly never cease!
Have an amazing week!
Allie says
Way to go!!!!
I really need to get a fuel belt or a handheld for when I start my half marathon training, there are no water stops on my trail and I know I'll need to drink.
Ali says
Congrats on the 100 pushups! That's amazing.
Good luck in Boston
Molly says
That handheld looks great, I've wondered if it gets heavy after a while, but I think I'm going to have to buy myself one for Christmas!

Congrats on the pushups!!! And where have I been on the handheld water bottles? Didn't know such a thing even existed.
Suzy says
Woo hoo!!! WTG on the push ups. I am hoping a handheld is wrapped and under the tree for me.
Velma says
Way to rock the push ups! Give Meb my best when you chat in Boston 🙂 Any news yet about the womens race?

Hi Teamarcia,
New to your site. Thanks for stopping by mine. Enjoyed your article. Glad your water bottle worked out. When I was in High school we had a push up challenge. It was fun. What is cool is that all of the smaller guys whipped the bigger guys's @$$es. Great Job on that, and cool site.
kilax says
Yay! Way to go on the 100! That is a huge accomplishment.
I would like to try a running bottle like that. The water belts always make my stomach hurt!

You are my idol, 100 push-ups; I hope I can report the same thing in 6 weeks.
