kicking butt in two ways...

so I totally dominated my art history test today. I counted and there was a total of 3 questions I did not know...this was out of almost 200 questions and an essay! It made me realize, I like studying and knowing I did well on a test...I haven't felt this in a while.

Also, I lost a little more than a month of solid bearathon training. I am running faster than I ever have, but I think I could have been even faster if I didn't have my IT band injury. So my challenge is getting in tip top shape in a month, increasing my average mile speed by a minute for a two hour race. I am mildly concerned that the last two years I have gotten a terrible week-long case of the flu the last week in Feb. I need to be super cautious so I don't get that again, because if I do...I might just be lucky if I finish the bearathon. My goal is under 2 hours. I feel this is a good goal, for doing alot of treadmill running, not lots of hills, my first race that is longer than 3 miles, and my first race in 5 years.

Also Buddy gets her stitches out tomorrow!!!! I'm so happy for her, I feel like this will help her get back to normal....her hair just has to grow.
