7 years!
7 years ago I started running.
7 years ago I smoked 1 - 2 packs of cigarettes a day, and had for 15 years...I quit just after I started running.
7 years ago I married a wonderful supportive husband that encourages every minute I spend running.
7 years ago I ran my first 5k (and I just got a PR this weekend, a small one, but a PR and dammit I will take it!).
7 is good.
Happy runniversary to me!

Happy happy! AND 7 years ago you started on the road that would lead you to RA!

remind your lungs how much they like the taste of air.

Yes! And my first post on RA was in '07!
It is a lucky #!
Happy Runniversary to you! And here's to the next 7 years!

Congratulations Jen! It has been an honor to be just a small part of your running career. Thank you for everything you have done and continue to do for me! I wish you many more happy runniversaries. You are the best!!
So bittersweet,This tragedyWon't ask for absolution;This melody,Inside of me,Still searches for solution.A twist of faith,A change of heart Cures my infatuation.A broken heart, Provides the sparkFor my determination.
Happy Runniversary! (and I love that term!) Now get out there and run to a gas station to buy a lotto ticket with lots of 7's on it...
I don't half-ass anything
"I have several close friends who have run marathons, a word that is actually derived from two Swahili words: mara, which means 'to die a horrible death' and thon, which means 'for a stupid T-shirt.' Look it up." - Celia Rivenbark, You Can't Drink All Day if You Don't Start in the Morning
Ooooo, good idea! I think I will do this tonight!

Happy Runninversary!
Runners run
Happy Runniversary and Anniversary and manyversary Jen!
Does 7 years of running mean you start getting an itch for something else?
"Don't walk in front of me; I may not follow. Don't walk behind me; I may not lead. Just walk beside me and be my friend."
Happy runniversary to you!

Hmmm, doubtful. Took me 30 years to get an itch for running...I'm pretty lazy. Check back in 23 years.
And tomorrow I hit 7000 lifetime miles.
