Today’s Thankful Thursday is brought to you by Redbull and carbs! I’m pretty sleepy today from the Peas concert last night. It was a great show. I may have a video for you all from it tomorrow….
Ludacris pretty much ruled, the Black Eyed Peas were outstanding, but LMFAO has got to be joking. If you don’t know who they are, google them. And be amazed by the sheer ridiculousness. The entire time they were on, I kept thinking, “I’m either too old to get this, or they are straight up f*cking with us.” They sing the song from The Kardashians (“I’m in Miami trick…”).
I’ve only got one long run left and it’s a 22 on Saturday. I think I’m ready for it and am battling the what ifs. In fact, I got this pretty sweet email from Coach EK and today, it’s what I am thankful for.
“What if…
You start out at the right pace.
You trained exactly right.
Your stomach cooperates fully.
You miss every pothole and bump in the road.
You pass every speedy kid/prego lady/juggler/Elvis Impersonator/whoever
What if indeed.”
What are you thankful for today?
No clue – because what if
"The weather didn't cooperate."
I'm thankful that I have power in our blizzard… even though I cannot run.
I'm thankful that I have a loving family.
I'm thankful for blogs like this… they give me hope.
Check out my giveaway on my blog if you have a chance.
Yeah, lmfao is pretty lame indeed. And I wonder if they couldn't think of another name to call themselves… I mean, really?
Excellent, I am glad you had fun:) Today I am thankful dark chocolate and wonderful co-workers:)
What if I had one marathon where everything just all came together exactly. Oh, I had that once…and only once. But that's what makes it that much more of a challenge, huh!!?? Happy Thursday!! 🙂
What if we have a most excellent run and then mow down on some brunch afterwards and have lots of random @ss conversation along the way… oh wait there's no what if's involved, that is all a given! See you tomorrow!!!
P.S. Did Luda sing his new song? Cuz that shit cracks me up… or at least the video does!
I keep thinking it's a new version of LFO. Now THAT was a hot group!
I am thankful for all the amazing blog people out there who may just started a blog to keep in touch with people, but now I am stalking them (haha) and they have given me so much inspiration I swear I would have quit one run into it if I did not have all these people to read about!
Stay positive. You should print that email and post it in various places so that you could look at it whenever the whatif syndrome begins to creep up on you.
what a great sentiment! I love it! Good luck with the long run – you'll do great! You are so ready for this.
aww what a super fantastic coach! i hope you can hold those great thoughts through the race
Maybe they call themselves LMFAO cause that is what people are doing in reference to them. They are ridiculous!
I'm thankful that I'm having a fairly easy pregnancy… BTW, everytime I see you mention prego running the marathon, I think back to October when I ran the San Francisco Half while 13 weeks pregnant. Since it was so early other runners didn't know. 🙂 But you would've beat me… I finished in 2:15- not bad for a pregnant girl. You'll do great in Gasparilla!
oops 15 weeks prego. 😉
Oh i really like that! I am thankful that i am even able to run 🙂 I love getting out there and it amazes me what my body can do!
Coach EK is awesome – I love that!
What a nice coach! What if…it goes all right – a nice thought indeed. I'll be sending lots of good vibes for you on Saturday! I've got 20 on Sunday 🙂
Happy, Happy Thursday! 🙂
I'm thankful it stopped snowing!!!!
what if, indeed! best wishes!
i'm thankful that my cheetah print and pink running skirt arrived in the mail today. woot!
I'm thankful to have found a dentist that has totally eased my fears, and taken away my wicked tooth ache! 🙂
I am thankful that a friend pointed others in the right direction.
that makes me think of LFO, they were a pretty big deal…
i am thankful for having the willpower to go run later than normal tonight after a work function instead of being a bum and taking the night off – got in a great workout. 🙂
Ok but I like running to "I'm in Miami B*tch" it's kinda fun to wiggle my head around and stuff … the rest of their songs suck and they look like a couple of nerds! I saw them at the Grammys (I say this as if I was there and all).
What if you are just totally awesome no matter what?
Actually, the original title of the song was "I'm in Miami Bitch", but that wasn't going to go over too well on Carson Daly. I think LMFAO is hilarious and I'm an old guy! They play an active role on my running playlist.
