Having the right kind of running shoes (which allow me to actually, you know, RUN without excruciatingly painful shin splints) shaved a cool 2:41 off my time for a mile. I'm still slower than slow, but it's progress.
Oh, and Happy New Year!
EDIT: My longterm goal (for now) is to get my time down to below 10:00. My reward for doing that is going to be to buy something from Tiffany's, which is also on my 101 List of things to do. I think I'm going to get the Elsa Peretti Open Heart pendant:
Or maybe the Elsa Peretti Sevillana pendant:
Or maybe the Elsa Peretti Quadrofiglio pendant:
I like the first two the best. The quad circles are smaller and it seems that the black necklace portion becomes too pronounced.
It's great that you put those 'carrots' out in front of your goals. Good luck.

I like the heart one.
Posted by: Teem at January 1, 2006 11:37 PMI think I like the heart and the circle pendants equally at this point, with the quadrofiglio a distant third. For some reason I REALLY like the look of the black silk cord with silver. It's very much my style.
Posted by: Highwaygirl at January 2, 2006 10:14 AMI like the circle in theory, but it kinda looks like an "O" to me. So people might think your name starts with an O.
Or maybe that picture just makes it look like an O.
Oh oh ohhhhh it's MAGIC! You kno-o-ow.
