Life is a headlong rush into the unknown. We can hunker down and hope nothing hits us or we can stand tall, lean into the wind and say, "Bring it on, darlin', and don't be stingy with the jalapenos."
Thanks for keeping this going, Holly!
I'm aiming for 40; all easy pace stuff. We'll see.

I did not want to do any more treadmill on Sat/Sun, but running outside was not particularly easy, so I did not get very far.
