Over the weekend I traveled to the great state of Oregon, please note that great is crossed out. Oregon, if you want that title back, let me win the $150 million powerball next time.
I ran my first 5k and amazingly enough I didnt die during it. As you might know, I did go to one race before, back in november… when i was stalking ran into Tina Fey the silver medal winner of last years vice presidential election.
i dont know who’s bright idea it was to do races EARLY in the morning, but whoever it was is NOT my friend. I had to get up at nearly 6 am sunday morning for the 5k, and i did not wake up feelin like p diddy… [or brush my teeth with a bottle of jack]
[thats me in the mornings, fightin till i see the sunlight. and that is me extra happy and awake since it is christmas… can you tell im a morning person?]
oh and rewind champion meal late night before the race:
you guess it. the meal of champions. McDonalds – Proud sponsor of the US olympic team. that means it’s good for you. i promise.
anyways, we got to the race in time to pick up our free junk. there was free food too, but i wasnt smart enough eating machine wasnt smart enough to think of taking a picture of it. [she was smart enough to steal get some lara bars]
luckily I had conned a friend into waking up at 6 am and running 3 miles in the cold [sorry brad] so at least i didnt have to run alone!
it wasnt nearly as bad as i thought it would be, or even as freezing as i thought.
run run run, race race race, words words words, blogg blawg bloggy blawwggg, blah blah blah, stop talk talk talkin that blah blah blah [i b so good @ blawgging]
and, this was the “Race for the Roses” we finished and got our very manly colored roses
and the results *drum roll*
WE WON!
…..ok 450th place is winning… right? hey it was out of 1066 people.
we both finished with a time of 32:43
and wow are we WHITE.
OH YEAH! this race, sponsored by oh, i dont know, just my favorite thing in the world that isnt a girl with a money sign in her name, VITAMIN WATER. oh and what did i NOT see at the race? VITAMIN WATER! they gave us smart water, but NO VITAMIN WATER. um… thats not ok. dear vitamin water jesus, i ask you this is every post, GIVE ME FREE VITAMIN WATER.
