No run after all

So I didn't run today. I couldn't get in the running spirit. I think my legs just didn't want to run four days in a row, since I am planning on running tomorrow. That's OK. I rode the bike, instead. And I watched House Hunters while I did it. That is by far my favorite show on HGTV.

I stumbled upon the funniest blog ever the other day. Dawn is Mom to six kids (!!!) and had an auction on eBay recently. She was offing some Pokemon cards her kids unknowingly suckered her into purchasing. The eBay story had me rolling! I only have two rugrats, yet I could relate to her shopping nightmare. Poor, poor woman.

Apparently I'm not the only one who finds her writing hilarious. She's had more than 188,000 hits, with 77,000 of those coming on Wednesday and another 94,000 today, she says. I guess you need a wicked sense of humor when that many kids have emerged from your uterus. I will gladly remain unfunny in comparison, thank you.

Today's stats:
Bike:
Time: 40 minutes
Distance: 10.3 miles

That is hilarious. And they went for $140!!! Holy cow (as they say in India)!!

I read your exercise stats from the bottom, up. I thought "10 miles...nice long run...40 mintues...HOLY CRAP! That's really moving! Oh wait, bicycle ride...duh"

Hey, hey, hey now. "only" 2?!? No one ever told me that the difference between 1 and 2 was 1 is like having an accessory and 2 is like having an army. Although seriously, I can't IMAGINE having 3 or more. John's Grandmother had 10 kids, can you imagine that? No wonder she's crazy LMAO!

I actually feel the opposite of Marcy - I think 2 is cake..it seems to be the odd numbers that tip the scale a bit more. Nice bike ride!

I agree with Lori, it's the odd numbers that knock your socks off.

Great job on your ride!

I found your comments on J-Mom's blog and thought I would check out yours. You may not have ran, but the bike is also a great cross train. I will have to keep checking in on you some more.
