Chocolate or poop?!?

If you don’t know what the title of this post is referencing, click here.

As part of Half Training Plan: Week 1, I ran a short tempo today. Unfortunately, the weather as sub-optimal for outdoor running, so I headed to the treadmill for five miles of fun. Here’s what it looked like:

  • 1-mile warm-up – 10:31
  • 3 miles at 8:54 pace
  • 1-mile cool-down – 10:00

The boyfriend and I also booked our accommodations for the weekend of the race. Having always bypassed Indianapolis on our drives to and from Virginia, I’m excited to run all over the city.

I ran out of saran wrap today, so Bodger was very excited to play with the empty tube.

When he puts his mouth around one end of the tube, it amplifies the sound of his already noisy breathing. It’s quite amusing.

Look at his tongue, lolling out of his mouth. He’s a very special doggie.

Nom nom nom!

After baking a large batch of brownies and sitting down to do my homework, I noticed that I had dried batter caked all over my pants:

However, because studying rhythmic contrasts brings out my inner five-year-old, I told the boyfriend that I had pooped on myself:

(He didn’t believe me because the stains were only on the front of my shorts. Guys know their excrement facts, I guess.)

    The caption about Bodger’s noisy breath made me laugh out loud. Too bad no one is every home at night to hear me :(

    Maybe you had the shorts on backwards when you pooped yourself? I mean, if you were going to poop yourself, it is plausible your shorts could be on backwards.

    We need that Bodger breathing on vid!

    Yay! I am excited that you are running the Monumental. It sounds like a fun race!

  4. haha love it! That clip – wow – that lady was bold to do that. Bodger is just a little cutie – is he still growing? I heart his stance!!

    Nice job on the tempo! Especially on the treadmill.

    Your chocolate covered shorts remind me of the time I managed to get an M&M stuck to my belt and ended up with chocolate all over myself without noticing. Yeah, I’m special, I know :-)

    5 miles on the treadmill is no joke – i always tend to give up before then.
    and bodger is funny. I’m considering getting a dog on my own for the silliness, but still unsure about it.

    sounds like a great tempo run! what 1/2 training plan are you using? bethany keeps trying to talk me into running the half, but i’m not sure where i’ll be at the time, so i’m hesitant to commit. also, she is a speedy runner and a bit faster than i am.

    you should have put on your shorts backward to be more convincing, haha. :-)
