You know those days when some doubt creeps up on you?  Usually you can brush it off or tell your brain it's being ridiculous but every once in a while you let that nagging voice (the voice of un-reason?) get the better of you.  Yeaahhh, well, it's been that kind of WEEK for me.  Not fun.  Totally needed a kick in the butt. Which I not so kindly handed to myself on a silver platter yesterday.  It seems to be helping.  There's still a little bit of doubt lurking but I'm telling myself to suck it up and stop being a wimp.

More interestingly, I should be a blonde.  Because the 10k road race I was contemplating signing up for (but didn't because I was wavering on the price) has sold out.  However, it's only THEN that I realized it cost $25.00 NOT $60.00 as I previously thought....yeah....I was looking at the price for the half plus pasta party.  Oops.  I feel really dumb.  In addition to that is yet another example:  I had read on a few blogs this week about "Google Reader" and had no idea what this was.  Now I have mine all set up and I'm sort of in the 21st Century.

BACK TO RUNNING NEWS, I did sign up for a half marathon!  The San Francisco Nike Women's on October 19th.  This will work out well in one of two ways.  It will either serve as a training run for whichever fall marathon I sign up for or it'll be used as a post marathon race so I don't lose momentum.  Woot!

P.S. My Runner's World July issue arrived yesterday, it isn't 3 months late for once!!!  :P
