What a great month--your mileage is incredible!
:)
Love this!
the wind has been taunting me too.
April was awesome for you! I can't wait to see how May is going to go! Good luck tomorrow in the 10k!
Ahhh I know, go away wind! I don't read YA novels, but I have been known to be sucked into ''Degrassi'' from time to time. Shhh!
I like YA novels. May have to give that a try. Any other series you have liked? I loved The Golden Compass series.
Obsession of the Month: hand sanitizer
why didn't I remember to take it to Boston?! ugg.
YAY PR in April. awesome.
Dang cabury eggs - just freaking went on sale at my grocery store 10 cents a piece. what? I only bought 20, I wish I was joking.
You are so amazing and totally owned April! Can't wait for race day!
258 miles in a month? When do you sleep, girl?
The wind has been kicking the crap out of my confidence lately, any suggestions on how to beat it?
your mileage is incredible this month! hand sanitizer....my favorite. Good luck tomorrow!
iincredible!
With a month like that, your race is sure to be a success tomorrow!! Good luck!
you will be tearing down those pr's left and right! two weeks eeeeeeeeee!
PR tomorrow and in 2 weeks. I think your middle name should be PR the way you're running. awesome!
Awesome month - and May is probably going to be even better! :)
With all the K's you're putting in I think the hunger is legitimate. You don't need to control your appetite, you just have to make sure you're fueling well and you can probably afford a few treats along the way.
Saw Mark! You both did great! Two weeks till race day.
Another kickass month Marlene! Congrats on your mileage PR! That is truly incredible! :)
incredible month w/ that fabulous marathon PR!! i have a feeling next month is going to be even better!
keep using that hand sanitizer.
Wahooo! What a great month for you!!!!!! Xoxoxoxo

I love that you and hubs have been making plans for junk food! LOL! Two weeks! AHHHHH! So excited for you as you know I've been living vicariously through you. I know you're going to do amazing and I'm so glad I got to be a part of your awesome April! Xoxoxo
