8 on the 8th

I love reading Non-runner Nancy’s Blog. She always comes up with these cool virtual races to get everyone excited about running. Her latest is 8 on the 8th! This is to get pumped for the olympics, which happen to start on 08-08-08… also my mom’s birthday!!

I’m going to do 8 on the 8th, but in two 4 mile splits. I’m not nearly close to doing 8 miles at all right now. So, I think 4 milers might be manageable, if not, I’ll do a few 2 milers too. I’m just going to try to get in 8 miles on the 8th! I’ve always wanted to participate in these races, so I’m just going to do it!!

I’ve even spent a few minutes creating a cool banner… will you run 8 on the 8th?

Oooo, love the banner. I’m doing the race on Saturday. Hopefully I won’t hurt anything. It’s been months since I’ve run that far.
