1) My schedule calls for rest or cross training today. I'd be all over cross training if it weren't for the pesky fractured finger. So I've opted for a rest day. Slept in a little bit, got some extra coffee, no rushing. Ahhhhhh. Mid-week rest is niiiiice. Who knew?!?
2) Remember my post about Nuun? Well, apparently the Nuun folks found out about it and decided to send me some unsolicited thank-you Nuun, which I received yesterday. How cool is that?!?!
3) I was the lucky recipient of a $75 onlineshoes.com gift certificate courtesy of a giveaway on Wes's blog. I can't even begin to tell you how excited I am about that. Anyway, I picked out shoes and put the order in this morning. Woot! I'll be sharing a review after they arrive and I get a chance to try them out.
4) Checked out the official results from the race on Sunday. I was 4 of 14 in my age group and 60 of 134 overall. I''m rather pleased with the thought of being solidly middle of the pack. I've come a long way, baby!
5) I've run twice with my Nathan Handheld and once with my Amphipod Handheld. I promise to post about my experiences with them in detail after running a few more times, but I'll tell you right now that I'm liking them both.

See, the universe is fair. It busted up your finger, but gave you free nuun and a $75 gift certificate. Balance.
ReplyDeleteHmmm..this product review stuff...I need to try that out. Congrats on your race! I also am happy with being middle of the pack.
May free (good) stuff continue to rain down on you.
Sounds like things are turning up...now if that figer would magically heal. Can't wait to hear your reviews..
ReplyDeleteYou sure are lucky! Winning stuff and getting free stuff all the time!
ReplyDeleteawesome! I'm still trying to get Garmin to send me a free 310 XT :-)
ReplyDeleteYay for rest and free nuun!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to hear your detailed review of the handhelds. I really need one, since my speed work days seem to be about 6 miles right now and I don't like wearing my fuel belt when I'm trying to be fast.

Excellent happy things!!
ReplyDelete"Jumping for joy is good exercise." ~ I love that quote.
Are you running with the handheld bottles in your not-broken hand? Congrats on all the good things too! Yay!
ReplyDeleteYou should be pleased with that girl. Well done!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to hear about those handhelds. I need to know before I break down and dork out with a water belt.
You're on fir-ah these days! :o)

ReplyDelete2. Yay for free Nuun!
3. Congrats on the free shoes!

Unsolicited thank-yous are the best! Enjoy the rest day, and those results are great! Congrats on the shoes! Lucky you! :D
ReplyDeleteYAY for happy things! So awesome that Nuun sent you some as a nice thank you!
ReplyDeleteIt seems with the ocmbination of both #2 and #3 that you are very lucky!
ReplyDeleteAbout number 4? That is awesome! I'm super happy for you. ;)
ReplyDeleteYay for free Nuun!! That is awesome! I love when companies notice that we appreciate their products.
ReplyDeleteI don't know how many times I've mentioned Sony HDTV on my blog and not one Sony rep has ever contacted me to offer a complimentary 1080p HDTV. Jerks. Nice to see Nuun has a little more common courtesy.
ReplyDeleteNICE! Very inspiring!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to arrive mid pack myself.
Those Nuun folks sound great! I may have to try the product just because they stepped up and acknowledged your post. Way to go!!
You are on a roll!!
ReplyDeleteThose are 5 great happy things!!!
ReplyDeleteAll 5 things are great!
ReplyDeleteHow cool is that you posted about Nuun and they're sending you some? That's WAY cool!

ReplyDeleteHooray for all the happy things! Sometimes they seem to come on a roll.
