green jello

I've never felt so much emotion for a complete stranger. I'm both jealous and happy for the owner of http://www.willrunforbeer.blogspot.com/. I came across her blog will scouring the internet (by scouring, I mean 'googling.') for a jpeg of a race clock reading '03:59:59'. My current race goal and her previous, her blog is the first that comes up in a google search.

Within a few clicks and a few blog posts reads, I knew that she's since acheived her sub four hour goal was in the middle of a new goal: training to qualify for Boston.

Two real purposes for this entry:

1) to share an entertaining blogger w/ my nine followers (8 if you don't include myself).

and

2) it's nice to see a real person accomplishing real goals.

  1. Many thanks for the shout out and the support! Sorry that my blog threw off your Google results though. To make it up to you, here is a link to a picture of a chick smashing through a race clock that reads 3:59:39 http://www.runnersworld.com/article/1,7124,s6-238-517-0-13533-0,00.html. To really make it up to you, I will tell people it's a picture of you.

    Sending all my "blogger who breaks the four hour mark" karma your way - best of luck!

  2. What's funny is that, that's the exact picture I was looking for (no lie). What's not funny is that chick could probably kick my ass in a 5k.
