    That's great, Oak! Congratulations.

    I had a first today. Did 4 miles on snow-covered streets. It was sunny and beautiful after the snow storm and I just couldn't bring myself to get on the treadmill. So glad I didn't and got outside.

    Very impressed by the 5k times you ladies are attaining, wow!! Good job!

    Been stuck in bed most of the week with a bad cold & wisdom teeth trying to make a come-back (ouch!) so I didn't get a lot of mileage in prior to my long run today. With cough drops & kleenex in hand I joined my ultra-running comrades for 22miles of very hilly country roads. Surprisingly the cold didn't hold me back that much, a few sections there I told the hills who was boss, really good run. Video is up on my blog.

    Pretty tired now & my nose is running instead of me at the moment, but figured I would update you ladies.

    Happy running!

    Wow, you're my hero. If I had been sick all week, I would have chickened out on the 22-miler. Wow!

    Great job Oakleaf.

    Urlea- Get better, I can't believe you toughed it out for a run.

    My Mom and Dad took me for my early birthday present today to get my running shoes. It was a really cool experience and the shop definitely deserves their nearly 5-star Yelp rating. I ended up with Brooks Adrenaline GTS10 after trying about 15 different pairs of shoes. My mom also bought me a Nathan bottle to try, a running visor and some new socks to complete my gift. I am really excited about my run tomorrow!

    YEAH oaK!

    Congrats on the new shoes Aggie!

    All is well here, I had a 9 miler wednesday and a 12 miler with 4 miles of speedwork at the end yesterday. It was a little mentally painful, because I did it on the treadmill (bad weather), but I managed my way through it.

    Started seeing a sports nutritionist this week to help me figure out fueling for IM training....she was awesome, and also a triathlete/runner.

    Happy running!
    Slow and steady (like a train!)

    Hey kacie... if you are still in Atlanta, GA... I know of the best 1/2 marathon mountain trail race held in May. It's up in Summerville, GA. I have gone to it 3x myself. My friend holds the race... she lives near Summervile. It's called TwistedAnkle... it's an awesome 1/2 marathon or full marathon in the mountains. You'd love it!!

    but you must register soon, as it does fill up.

    http://www.rungeorgiatrails.com/registration.html

    (p.s... the website hasn't been updated for 2010 yet, but the link to register for 2010 race is there).
