the hills...

It's funny how many things came to mind when I wrote that title: The Hills reality show, The Hills have Eyes creepy ass movie that Will and I made Amanda watch with us (she kept her hands over her eyes most of it) and the hills of Athens, GA. In training for the half marathon in April, I am trying to strengthen my legs (per my coach's advice) and do some cross training on hills a couple days a week. After almost killing myself yesterday running in the Botanical Gardens through the wet slosh and stumbling over hidden roots, I decided to tackle some hills today. I ran up and down some hills in the neighborhood for two miles until my legs felt like jello. But I'm glad I hung in there.

Today was the first day of my smoothie. It went well. Banana is not my favorite flavor (probably my least) so I maybe should have started with a berry rather than a banana but that's ok. There's always tomorrow. I did feel pretty sluggish all day and I am wondering if it was a good idea to drop caffeine completely. Maybe I'll add in a diet coke every now and then...

Cheers.

Oh, and sad day about the good people on Mignon street (the street I used to live on in Memphis. NEVER a dull moment in that neighborhood! I swear):
