My name is Amy and I'm...

a runner.

I just registered for my first marathon.

May 31st, 2009

May I drag my old ass across the finish line in one piece.

I am woman, hear me scream for ibuprofen.

Ok, I really just want the jacket.

Happy Easter!

The Easter bunny brought all sorts of fun treats for Jack this year!

And Jack got his very own fancy bathrobe.

I, on the other hand, ran 9.5 miles and the last one was with Jack. He's going to take up running. After his meltdown 3 blocks into the run, he did great! We have a lot to work on about technique, stride, and pace, but I think Jack will do awesome!

If you can't find a good running partner, bribe your kids into it.

Did I mention Jack got a trench coat and combat boots this weekend?

I'll provide pictures soon...Tatters is his new favorite store.

What did I get? A new smurf patch for my running coat.

Seriously smurfy.

So...my dad sent me this picture saying it reminded him of Jack's Halloween photo...

I would say the resemblance is frightening...

I went out to run 7 miles...I figured I cash out after 4.

I ran 8!!

Rock on!!

Wait...I think this moment needs a very special photo...
