Today I ran 8 km in 39:26, placed ninth in my age group, did it in the pouring rain, without music or someone to talk with, almost no training (one to two 6 km runs a week don't really count) and about four day's notice (just how I like to do things). All to just scratch "running a race" off my "bucket list." I thought about waffles the whole time. They are cooking now.

Doing stuff is overrated.

One or two 6K (3.75 miles, for us in the US) DEFINITELY counts as training! Unless that week only happens once every two months. Then I'll give it to you.
Awesome job? Is that lump under your shirt a baby? ;)
That's my hat stuffed in my pocket. no babies over here.
LOL! I figured it was either something like that or your fanny pack. ;)
Also, it was supposed to say - AWESOME JOB!!!!! (I'm not questioning the awesomeness of your job). XO
You go girl!
Good for you! That's a great time for 8km. I LOVE scratching things off my list!!!
