Running Wogging & the Glass Half Full

New Mexico has a special beauty this time of year...       This is why I live here.......       PS. I ran a 20 miler Friday, and it was amazing...

  Last week's long run I could live off that  It was everything and more I kept my legs and my wits about me And even managed a few cool pics along the way Half way through- I realized I needed a 'break'    This served well for that Brain decompressed Bonk averted Then saw this next bit And chuckled  (I wish the picture came out better) It says: "Don't liter" hmmmmmm Spellcheck much? I think they meant to spray paint "litter" #fail   In the football team's defense,  I did post a comment in January under one of Dave's posts on Facebook  I was proud to respond with A simple witty comment that simply said  "Carma"   2 hours later,  This is me Realizing  That my oh so witty remark was terribly spelled wrong I thought all day whether to go back and re-comment  "Haha I meant-- karma silly auto correct!" But knew no...

'Old spice' run In which my entire run  Was consumed with singing the old spice commercial  (you really need to watch its wonky-ness) Yes, I have focus issues But It does have a catchy tune And you can change the words!

Like that commercial? I mean, In my defense I only switched him to old spice as a joke-  But it worked, smelled good- And I can remember which one I get him, on account of the silly car name Denali Or Fuji in a pinch- yeah, I like that one too I smile, thinking how witty I am to remember which deo...

I guess looking outside is in order Oh snap! "Holy snow batman!" Now you must know This born-and-raised Minnesota girl  Has totally turned into a New Mexican We pride ourselves on the efficiency of our snow It comes down,  It melts But this This was snowman snow  Not dry Not greasy It was Heavy Wet Tell me I'm not the only one who describes snow-  Tell me you know what I mean It is literally  The best kind of snow to get If it's going to hang around But I didn't want it to I tell myself I'm brave Get in my car Drive to my early morning starting spot Snow is thick on the road too I drive slower Wondering just how I will make this run happen I drive on Then park And wait And watch the snow come down I can't bring myself to get out  I just sit there Dumbfounded I sit there  M...
