I'm a Slacker with a running problem, wait, maybe that's backwards
Short and sweet tonight!
So, I learned today that glass scales are made of tempered glass. They still shatter into hundreds of pieces when dropped on a tile floor; but there way fewer sharp edges. My big toe still found a sharp one. 😦
Today was fairly calm for a Friday- woo- hoo!
My coworkers bought me these beautiful flowers-As well as pizza for lunch, they know me so well.
Then there was this cake. Tomorrow’s race may just be fueled by cake. Cake’s a carb, right?I managed to sneak out for a break around 4 to pick up the race packet. That was also the first time I saw tomorrow’s new age in print, yikes! However, the swag was kind of awesome.
Then it was back to work before heading home. This is when I had a wardrobe conundrum-
Now, my gear is packed. A new playlist is ready (no Wrecking Ball), my Garmin is charged, and it’s off to bed for me. I have a 4:30 am wake up call. Ouch.
How was your Friday?
Anyone else racing this weekend?

Happy birthday! 🙂 That race swag is amazing. And cake totally counts as a carb… an extra healthy carb if it’s your own birthday cake! 😉
