At least bed bugs are actually stimulating the economy, the exterminators are earning a killing.

It’s a heart rate monitor, although now that I think about it probably a panic button would be more useful. Don’t give him ideas! BUT wait until you hear this… after the crazy 5th run this morning… I biked 10 miles to the beach and back. It was supposed to be sunny but a stupid grey cloud (ash?) covered the sun and in the end it was just really hot and windy… but I’m still so proud of myself! And you should be proud to, you got me off the couch!

Gracia: What’s a HRM? At first I thought it was a brand of iPod and then I read the bit about passing out and figured Eric got you a panic button. I’m very proud of you and your running! You’ve gone five times now?! Way to go! My old roommate used to say it takes 30 days to start an exercise habit. (I would remind myself of this when I didn’t feel like peeling myself off the couch.) Keep it up! It’s such good stress relief and it’ll serve you well if you’re up to your neck in wedding planning.

Oh, not only did I go running for the 5th time today, I did it with a brand new HRM! (that is a sad attempt to sound like I’m so into running I got one, but actually Eric was scared that I might pass out while running and got me one)

Wow – I am beyond impressed! For one thing, you look fantastic! And for another, you’re amazing! What a great goal to set and then achieve. I bet you feel like you can do anything now. Which, of course, you can! Congratulations again!

I would die before I’d post a pic of myself in a bathing suit. You are a BEAST! I thought for a second that you were sporting an awesome calf tat in that first picture. Then I read the age thing. So cool.

I totally relate to your loneliness at the start, your sense of elation as you finished and your desire to push your body that hard. Love the post, love the pictures.

Congrats on your accomplishment!

p.s.s the picture of you running reminds me of a Seinfied episode when Kramer participated in a race of some kind. hehe
