I remember where I was when I read the news. I was on Spring Break with my family, standing in the line for "Radiator Springs Racers" at Disneyland (which had, of course, broken down). The kids were busy making friends with the people in front of us, so I pulled out my phone to catch up on my twitter feed. I was scrolling through when I saw the Runner's World post - BREAKING: Kara Goucher Signs With Oiselle." My first thought was "HOLY. COW." I'm pretty sure I thought it out loud. My second thought was "I'm so happy and proud for Kara and Sally and Oiselle and runners everywhere and... and..." And then I read Kara's story (you can read it here)... and it made me even more proud - as a woman, as a fan, and as a runner.

A Balancing Act
As I was ironing a shirt for my husband this morning at 1:15 a.m. (because that's how I've been rolling lately), I started thinking a lot about running. Well, I think about running a lot of the time anyway, but specifically, about races. Part of me said, you need to finish this shirt and get to bed - tomorrow is going to come early. The other part of me (which clearly won out) wanted, no needed, to sit down and write this post, even though I'd already turned off my computer for the day.
