Running On Fumes: May 2012
http://running-on-fumes.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html
Thursday, May 31, 2012. No Room For Egos. The idea for this post came the other night while I was watching So You Think You Can Dance (and for the record, no, I dont think I can dance. I KNOW I cant dance beyond my slightly spastic happy jigs but I love watching this show. Its completely my guilty pleasure.). There were the requisite amazing dancers, the heartbreak stories, 1 Exorcist dancer. 2 absolutely A-Dorable kids. Tuesday, May 15, 2012. But I'm on vacation, so the calories don't count.right?

http://running-on-fumes.blogspot.com/2012/07/its-ok-to-admit-defeattemporarily.html
Sunday, July 22, 2012. It's ok to admit defeat.temporarily. I have two favorite quotes:. Full quotes at the end of the post). Promise me you'll always remember: You're braver than you believe, and stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think". There is a vast difference between failure and temporary defeat". Is a rucksack from GORUCK. On the ride home, all I could do was beat myself up for leaving. I found myself saying "Well so-and-so wouldn't have quit, so why did you? It wasn't until I was crawl...

Sunday, April 29, 2012. Team Legendary: Brian, me, Daniel, Diana. This past Sunday I decided to hold a little training session with the group of people I'll be running the Spartan Race with in May. They are all obstacle racing virgins and I wanted this training session to help prepare them at least a little bit for the race. Although that's kind of like saying you want to eat a Vienna Sausage to prepare for a hot dog eating contest. Going into it I was a little nervous, for a couple of reasons. I had dec...

Heres the problem: I dont particularly like them. Dont get me wrong, I want. 160;to like them, but I just dont. Heres a list of veggies I find tolerable:.

Running On Fumes: WE ARE SPARTA! (For real this time)
http://running-on-fumes.blogspot.com/2012/06/we-are-sparta-for-real-this-time.html
Sunday, June 10, 2012. For real this time). Have done before a race-burned out my grip and forearms while bouldering, killed my legs on a super steep hike in Boulder, and apparently let myself get dehydrated. Spending a week in high altitude with next to no humidity was probably the worst thing I could have done before this race. The heat and humidity on this race day make you feel like you're practically chewing the air before being able to swallow. Yech. Risin' up straight to the top. We're dumped abou...

http://running-on-fumes.blogspot.com/2012/07/things-i-accomplished-while-i-was-sick.html
Friday, July 27, 2012. Things I accomplished while I was sick this week. This literally was my life this past week. Remember how I said I was feeling crappy on Saturday which is why I couldn't get through my bootcamp workout? Turns out I had an upper respiratory infection but it turns out the cure (Prednisone) made me sicker than the infection. Therefore I ended up having to take the entire week off from work. Here is everything I accomplished during this week:. Episodes of Breaking Bad attempted: 1/2.
