july 2010 & csn gift card winner

past two mondays:

this monday:

slight case of depression going on here. slight.



hey, let's lift the mood here with a recap of july. oh wait...

july 2010
total mileage: 51.60 (umm. this used to easily be my weekly mileage.)
time spent running: 7:52:51
days off: 23...
pounds gained: too many. i actually fit into my "fat work pants"; the ones i used to have to roll down.
days worked: 8 (best month ever!)

well if i can't boost my own self-esteem i will at least make someone else's day. the winner of the $60 csn stores giftcard is jess of see jess run! (jess, email me at lindsay at chasingthekenyans dot com to confirm your email address. i think i have it, but i want to make sure i send the right one on to csn.)


i almost gave up on the dice roller...
got too many 5's and 6's as the first number.
(i started numbering entries at 11 instead of 1, since you can't get a 0 on dice)

lisa of chasin' bunnies was the only one to guess our amazing vacation spot (but everyone who guessed got the extra entry) - we went to the french polynesia, tahiti and moorea to be exact. i'd so give up the internet any day to live there; josh on the other hand prefers civilization and walmart (how lame). ;-)

i'm still unpacking/re-settling at home (with a bunch of new goodies!), slowly working my way through my incredibly backlogged google reader and hopefully making it around to the new readers/commenters. yes, there will be wedding and h-moon pics to come! i mean it's not like i have running to talk about...

my lovely wedding shoes
i think my feet were photographed more than my face, haha

  5. When I saw the first picture that you posted, I KNEW that I had guessed correctly.

    We were in Moorea for our 20th anniversary. Felt a bit old among the honeymooners, but what a beautiful, beautiful place. I want to go back!!!

  12. Welcome back! You were missed :)

    Those shoes were awesome. I look forward to hearing more about the wedding/honeymoon. The honeymoon picture makes me more and more anxious for our Hawaii vacation.

    Glad to see that you are catching up on your blog reading. I saw all your comments pop up in my inbox this morning. I'm glad that I could keep you busy at work.

  15. Oh wow, love the shoes! Do not feel guilty for a second about any pounds gained or for not running. Once in a lifetime event. :)

  16. Ok, I win the biggest a$$ on the planet award.

    I can not believe I somehow missed the "I am just heading off to get married" post. I figured we had not heard from you because of that and your fabulous honeymoon (and Oh.My. God. I can barely breathe from the weight of the green monster sitting on my chest! That wedding venue and vacay spot are GORGEOUS!) but I missed the opportunity to wish you well.

    I simply CAN NOT WAIT to see the pictures! Congratulations to you two very lucky people! The wedding and honeymoon are fun, but the marriage is BY FAR the best part!

  19. I took photos at my cousins wedding, she also had sneakers (not as nice as yours)

    I admit, I took many photos of her shoes! haha

    I also have not been running so much. I broke the streak! :( It's that time of year, I guess.

  20. Ummm yes please post pictures from the honeymoon. They will make me insanely jealous and perhaps give me a nice kick in the ass to start planning my own fun trip somewhere.
    ReplyDelete
  21. Oh I love the wedding shoes & can't wait to see more pictures.

    I'd be depressed too with the drastic change in scenery!!
    ReplyDelete
  22. I LOVED that little intro with contrasting the pictures! what a difference!

    Well, congratulations on your wedding!! I completely missed it because I was off line for almost four weeks, but I see there haven't been any wedding picts put out yet...so I can't wait for that.

    And those are pretty shoes. I can't wait to run again. Still have three months until the baby's due. I suppose I could walk...ha! ha!! I know I say that like I run or something.
