Establish Crazy First

Michelle - I dedicate this post to you!

While talking with a friend on the phone this evening, we were joking about meetings and how to keep it interesting you should be the first to establish crazy. I suggested doing something random like turning off the lights and telling people you work better in the dark. Whether everyone will respect you or not, we're not sure, but they certainly won't ask many questions.

How does this fit in with my mini-marathon training? Well, deciding to train for a 13 mile (ahem, 13.1 mile) trek, I officially established crazy.

You see, crazy isn't always bad. Sometimes, it's motivating and thrilling and so is the journey I've been taking.

And now onto business...

Beth, why aren't you at the gym? I had my first major exam for the semester this evening, so I didn't have time to fit it in. Neil is at the gym working hard - hopefully hard enough for both of us, and while it was tempting to skip my blog tonight, I'm sure my public is awaiting an update (yeah, right).

Anyhow, you'll notice I didn't blog last night either. Last night we attended the show "Ella" at Actors Theatre, so no gym either.

So, the bad news, I've missed a few days. Excuses, excuses - I know. Luckily, although you wouldn't necessarily know it from my constant joking on this blog, I'm taking the training very serious. I was really bummed when I realized I would miss a few days this week, but duties call.

The good news is that it's given my feet a chance to really heal! Saturday is a 5 mile day, so I'll need to be in tip-top shape (foot wise).

And with official business out of the way, I'll end my entry for the night. Go out and establish crazy in your own way! It keeps life interesting! And if you have suggestions for establishing crazy, by all means send them my way.
