the beginning of a new era...or welcome to my life

hey kiddos,

i was at work from 8:30 am to 8 pm today and as a result am taking a rest day =)  i was going to do some elliptical but i decided i would rather get some unpacking done and get to bed earlier.  plus tomorrow is a speed workout and after last week’s fiasco i need to BRING IT tomorrow night!

GREAT NEWS though!  my camera charger has arrived!  not only that but it WORKS with my camera!  haha i was a little worried since i basically bought it from felloffthetruckblackmarketelectronics.com  this means great things for you my dear readers as i can now take you with me throughout my day and document anything and everything.  for instance right now i’m sitting on the couch in my apartment stealing internet from someone a little more to the east than myself.  i know this because i can’t steal this internet in my bedroom which is on the western side of the apartment.

i was doing a little “i need a break from what i’m doing or i’m going to gauge my eyes out” blog reading this afternoon when it became apparent that it would be a long day – and it seems that there are a lot of bloggers out there re-evaluating their diets right now whether it be testing out being vegetarian for a month like megan on runnerskitchen or just some general clean up like jenna on eatliverun or matt on nomeatathlete it was inspiring and got me thinking.  i probably DO need to watch what i put in my body a little more.  i think now that i can document what i eat more easily for you guys maybe i’ll be more aware of it as well.

this goal that i set for myself is a lofty one…if qualifying for boston were easy everyone would do it.  i’m going to have to run 26.2 consecutive miles in the low eights.  its not exactly a cake walk.  last may i ran the philadelphia broad street run and averaged 8:07’s.  it was tough i’m not kidding and afterwards i was tiiiiiired.  i had some motivation in that i wanted to beat my brother-in-laws though =D  kinda kidding guys…  so in addition to re-evaluating my fuel i’m going to be working on getting the motivation up and keeping it up.  more on that to come.

for now i’m going to have a little of this.

do some unpacking of those boxes you can see in the back, eat some sushi and then call it a night.

thanks for sticking with me through grainy iphone pictures and only the occasional hijacked nice picture from ally or my dad’s camera.  my cute red sony cybershot is back in business!
