5.5 miles during the hottest part of the day!!  It was the only time I had between capstone shift last night and work shift tonight.  I was slow, fat, tired, and happy! :) :)

At 2 PM! Wow, you are one tough cookie. I ran at 7:30 AM and I thought it was too hot!

WOW! I don't know how so many of you run in the heat. Crazy madness, I tell you.

Tired and happy ... yes, I believe that.

Slow and fat ... not on your life, Missy!!! :)

Matt - I didn't mention that I had to stop every 1/2 to 1 mile to recover in the shade! I walked 1 mile's worth, too. Haha. :)

Teena - it sounded funny to use the terms "fat and happy" together, doesn't that just sound like a good, jolly time? That's how I felt. :) But really, time to shape things up soon here!!

...although I just looked up my lab results from a blood test on Wednesday...dang Gina, I'm healthy as a lark!! It's fun seeing my own results after learning about lab values for the last 15 months!

I LOVE the happy positive and good tiredness you exhuberate! You are too cute!!! :)

WAY to get the run in between works and in the hottest part of day! WOW!!! U GO GIRL!!!

AWESOME textbook perfect lab results! Nurses love to see good numbers especially from your very own body!!! :)

Fat and happy - I love it! :) me too!

No wonder your blood results are perfect! I think we are too hard on ourselves, especially as runners always wanting to 'lighten up'. Nice run in the heat of the day! I'm with the others - that is NUTS! Ha! I had to say thanks for 'gang Gina' made me laugh. It's been a while since I've heard that one.
