I’ve been smiling for two straight days. (I swear it has nothing to do with the bubbly that I shared with Suzy or the beers with Yvonne). Spring has finally arrived β for real. My bare legs have finally felt the sun beating down on them. Even though I am full-out taper mode, I had to get outside to run.
The marathon group was running 16K and another group was running 6K. I volunteered to lead a 10K group. There were about 15 humans and one dog named Bishop, who ran his first 10K today. The Running Room uses the run 10 minutes, walk 1 minute training method so I stuck to the script. I wanted to ensure everyone was having a fun time because many were new runners.
Michelle is so NICE. A little harsh truth here β some people on the Internet are a little CRAZY. I met Michelle briefly at the medal reveal in Calgary a few weeks ago. But mostly I know Michelle from her online self. And you know … everybody is their true self online …
Verdict? Not crazy. She’s a super sweet lady who was genuinely interested in chatting with EVERYONE. I loved her positive attitude about running and life. We need more positive energy in this world. I am so glad Michelle made the drive to Red Deer. I think she had a good time because she blogged as soon as she got back to Calgary.
Read about her experience here.
I hope you had a very runny weekend!
Thanks for showing me around Red Deer Crystal! It was great to chat with everyone about what makes them tick! I'm so glad the crazies (taper crazies???) didn't come out to play today! π
PS: A little more bubbly shall be in order around this time next Sunday, yes?
Thanks! I had super fun on Sunday! Great running with you!
Iβm so glad to hear that Michelle isnβt crazy! Ha ha. Looks like you had a rad weekend of running. So excited for you guys and this weekend!
