Run Run, As Fast As You Can

I don't know if this is the stupidest thing or the smartest thing I have ever done, but I signed up for the Cherry Blossom 10-miler. This means I need to train like whoa. I ran a bit before the holidays and a little during, but then I stopped for 2 weeks. Now, with I think 79 days to go, I need to step it up. So, I ran 1.5 miles on Sunday and Monday, and 1 mile yesterday. I was going to run again tonight, but my foot hurts a bit, and I don't won't to injure myself before I really get going. So, a night off tonight, and back at it again tomorrow.

We are in the midst of evaluations of work, and while slightly scary, its also been kind of fun to see everything I have done over the past year. Well, 8 months, but who is counting. In any case, its cool to see everything I have been a part of, and to know that my words are going into documents that are shaping U.S. policy. Freaking unreal. Anyway, wish me luck! Hopefully my review will go well.
