This week, I signed up for a race!
It's September 18th.
That means I have less than a month to train. Eeek.
By the way, if you have never done a race, you should try it.
It is way more fun than "normal running". There is something addicting about it.
I train just so I can run these races.
I am training with Hal. He says:
Is that like a "New York" State of mind Hal?
As you saw earlier this week, now that I am training, I can eat this from time to time.
MMMM...cobbler.
This week has been a strange weather week. I am enjoying the clouds.
Remember when I asked how to fix my iPod, which has been wigging out from the humidity (I think)? I was told to put it in rice. So I tried it. I will try anything. I need my iPod.
It did help a little. I am still having issues, but they ARE fewer and farther between.
I am still going to use that rice.
I am still going to use that rice.
I tried to find a new running path, but why the heck are there no sidewalks in these places?!!
So I went to the tried and true. Below is my pre-run kit.
Notice the bug spray. There are chiggers here. If you don't know what a chigger is, consider yourself VERY, VERY lucky. I got a bite over a month ago and it STILL ITCHES.
I HATE CHIGGERS.

It was cooler and LESS HUMID! Finally.
After my run, I bought myself a little gift.
Ahhhh. Sweet yummy goodness.
I couldn't stop guzzling it long enough to take a photo, so this is the only picture I got.
I did get a light one though, and apparently it paid off.
I have to cinch my belt two notches tighter!
I went grocery shopping. The blueberries are still fresh!
I am taking advantage while I can!
Oh and I bought a whole watermelon. I live alone.
I DID eat the entire thing by myself. In less than a week, mind you.
I also bought lemons, as I have been on an iced tea kick and love a nice cold tea with lemon.
I made another pot of chili. Yup, it's an old standby. I usually make about 10+ servings and then freeze 2/3 of it (in two separate containers) so I can just pull one out at a later date.
Okay, you may not remember this barn. I have taken a picture of it before. Maybe a month or so ago. You can see that photo HERE. What a difference, right? It's kind of fun to take photos of the same things and see how they progress over time.
How was your week? Have you ever gotten a chigger bite?
Have you ever run a race?
Do you know how to fix my iPod?
