Three Things Thursday!

I can't believe it's been almost a month since I've posted! Things have been crazy around here!

1) I got a PR in my 5k from May 1 - it was a 5k run to benefit Autism and I finished in 28:32! I was shocked - almost a minute faster than my previous PR! Woop woop!

2) I have officially sold over 100 scrapbooks on my Etsy site (check it out HERE), the majority being Runner's Race Bib Books which are made to hold race bib numbers. I have been very busy trying to keep up with the demand, which seems to have grown since racing season is in full effect.

3) I now know what it's like to live in Seattle and London. Today was our 5th day in a row of not seeing the sun and we still may not see it until Sunday. It has done a number on my already lazy-motivation. Once again, if I have not dished out the money for a longer race, I just have a hard time getting out there. Once I get out for my run, I am back in love with running, but just getting going has been tough lately.

Hope everyone has a great weekend! We're doing a small 5k right here in our town to benefit a local dyslexia school. Hopefully the rain holds off for a little bit at least!

Three Things Thursday!

Whew! It's been so busy around here that I haven't blogged in a LOOONG time! Here are some random TTT thoughts....

1) While shopping with Munchie today, I was referred to as his Nanny. "You can't be his Mom, you must be the Nanny, right?" Hahaha, glad that I still look like I'm 12! :)

2) I am LOVING having a training plan! I love the feeling of running and completing long runs, I love seeing my miles adding up quickly on dailymile, and I love eating ice cream at 8:30 at night while blogging and not feeling guilty! My half is just 3 weeks away - Lake George Half Marathon in Lake George, NY.

3) I have been CRAZY busy with my Etsy business. Lots of custom orders for Runner's Race Bib Books are coming in - must be because everyone is getting excited about racing season and warmer weather! I cannot complain at all, I especially love making custom books where I can include an individual's name and the race/races that they have completed! Hope everyone else is staying busy, running, and looking young :)

Three Things Thursday!

1- Things around here have been CRAZY full of Christmas, snow storms, my birthday, too many cookies, and a little running, and a lot of family! It was GREAT!!!!

2- I have had many requests for more Runner's Race Bib Books and Scrapbooks. I am currently taking a little break, but will be back up and scrapbooking next week! I am looking forward to it, although I have enjoyed this little break that I gave myself. I got a new die-cut machine for Christmas which is AWESOME!!! I can cut out and personalize little "runners" to use in the books. I can't wait to start to use it!

3 - We are getting a weekend away without the little guy. My parents are watching him for the weekend while we go skiing with friends for New Years! Two nights away....very well deserved, but we will definitely miss him :)

Hope everyone is enjoying this holiday season.
Happy New Year!
