Wacky Wednesday: Sarah and Matthew - the dynamic celebrity running duo

Ran: 6.3 miles / 10K - running group training - easy work-out (post-marathon)

A. How does Sarah Palin do this?




Blowdried hair, full make-up and off for a run. I don't get it. Really, I don't. I have to stick with throwing my hair in a ponytail and adding some waterproof mascara. What can I say, I just sweat a lot! I guess I can forget about meeting the guy of my dreams while running... Sarah, on the other hand, looks like a model for a running ad.



B. Matthew M. runs like a girl. Sorry to shatter your dreams, girls, but in this photo he just does...


Does Matthew M. own a shirt? Still wondering... starting to feel sorry for the guy


Question: Who is your fav celebrity runner?

Wacky Wednesday: Did I really just do that?

Running Group: Ran: 6.3 miles / 10K - with speedwork - intervals (1K in 4.20 min - 10 x 1 min full speed / 1 min rest - 1K in 4.10 min)

Did I really just do intervals for 30 min, and was still able to push through a 4.10 min 1K in the end - in this 90 F / 30 C heat with 200% humidity? I was wheezing like a 90 year old smoker, that's for sure, and for a minute I really did think that I wasn't able to breathe at all, but I pushed through it! Might seem like not such a big deal, but to me it was! And I felt great (and tired) afterwards! Sweet! :)
OK, I wasn't this tired or fast (not even close!), but you get the picture
