20 Days - A Christmas Carol

"Well if they'd rather die, then they had better DO IT. And decrease the surplus population. Good afternoon."

It never ceases to amaze me how evil Ebenezer really is. And Jim Carrey's version is no different. Although I will admit - this is not my favorite version. Not even in my top three. But it's a great adaptation. And a lot of fun. My favorite? Stay tuned to next week, my friends. ;)

Today I did something WONDERFUL.

I wore my new shirt to the gym for a treadmill workout. Let me tell you - the folks at www.runningbanana.com did a GREAT job on this shirt. Wait until you see it! What I love most about it is that the graphics are not laid on it - they're actually woven INTO it. You'll see.

And with the new shirt on, I was faster - stronger - and had less leg/shin area pain. I did a STRONG treadmill workout for 1.25 miles at pace. And it felt GREAT.

I actually caught myself thinking - "Hey - know what? I can DO this!"

Which is one of the first times I've felt no doubt yet.

Let's capitalize on that and keep moving forward! THREE WEEKS TO GO!

MAIN STREET AWAITS!

    Be preparing for cold Florida weather. It looks like it is going to be cold again. Seriously. Hat ,gloves, long pants, long sleeves. Be prepared to drink frozen slushy water, at water stops. It has been in the 20's up there.
    My Dad said it looks like it's going to be a cold one again.
