Sorry this is so late in the day yall...I had to work today and I haven't been feeling well. <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/sad.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Sad"><br>
Oh and today is my brothers B-day so happy birthday Dickhead...not that he would ever read this!<br><br>
1. Why do you run?<br>
Because it is the only way to maintain my weight, it makes me feel better about myself, and I love it. I started running because I wanted to see if I could do it and I am so glad I continued. I am in the best shape of my life...which is amazing since I was always the fat kid.<br><br>
2. What is your greatest accomplishment?<br>
Finishing my Masters thesis. It took 4 years of full time work but I did it, learned what I was passionate about and now I finally have a job where I get to do what I love.<br><br>
3. What is your motto/theme song?<br>
I dont really have one.<br><br>
4. How do you deal with bad runs?<br>
I get upset. Sometimes I cry. Eventually I get over it.<br><br>
5. Do you reward yourself for good runs? How?<br>
Sometimes, but a good run is definately its own reward.<br><br>
6. Who do you admire most?<br>
My grandma is probably my favorite person in the world. I also really admire Antag...I am sure you all can see why. <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Smile"><br><br>
7. What is the greatest advice you have ever received?<br>
Don't be negative. A positive outlook really makes me a happier person but I tend to slip into the negative a lot.<br><br>
8. What do wish you had learned younger?<br>
To be an athlete. I really wish I hadnt spent my first 24 years of life sitting on my ass.<br><br>
9. What do you wish you could do but can't?<br>
Sing. It would be amazing to be a performer.<br><br>
10. How would your friends describe your personality?<br>
Sarcastic, witty, and outgoing if I am comfortable. I am only ever closed off when I am around people I do not know.<br><br>
11. What do you wear running? favorite outfit?<br>
Nothing special. Tech shirt and pants or shorts depending on the weather. I always have my GPS on and my I-pod if I am running alone.<br><br>
12. What has been your favorite race?<br>
The marathon, of course. It was an amazing experience and I cannot wait to do it again.<br><br>
13. Do you have a goal race right now?<br>
I have a 10K this weekend but I wouldnt exactly call it a goal race. My next bib race is surf city where I hope to PR in the half.<br><br>
14. What makes you happy?<br>
Antag, running, spending time with friends, reading a good book, my new job...<br><br>
15. Tell us one interesting thing about you that you haven't said (at least not often) on this forum in the past.<br>
I am pretty much an open book. Why dont you all just ask me questions and I will answer them. <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Smile"><br><br>
16. Tell us one interesting thing about another user of this forum that has not been posted (at least not often) on this forum in the past (make sure the other person will not object to posting the info!).<br><br>
Don't be fooled, Antag is just a teddy bear...and he will probably kill me for saying this.
