199 – Thing 1 or Thing 2? — Healthy Simple Living

Today’s picture just cracked me up when I saw my crazy hair. But my laziness to re-take the pic is greater than my embarrassment. Can’t tell if I look more like Seuss’ Thing 1? or Thing 2? Debbie, I need your bag!

What is your favorite power song when you workout? You know, that tune that makes you dig down deep for that little extra something-something and moves you to work harder, faster, longer? Please post in comments. Today mine was Good Love is on the Way live version by John Mayer. He’s the best training partner.

I will be posting a special feature of the “Fat to Phat” Nike+ challenge tomorrow. In the meantime, please see an update below.

**********************NIKE+ CHALLENGE**********************

The Shredder+ Team (S+) is on the run! Today was the first day of our “Fat to Phat” challenge. Out of 21 contestants, Meredith is already in fourth place with 3.04 miles! Lynda logged nearly 2.73 miles and is smoking in fifth place. Juli is in sixth place with 2.03 miles but had problems with her sensor, so it should really be more like 5 miles – Wow! And even though I wasn’t planning on running tonight, I couldn’t just stand by and eat their dust, now could I? So I hit the outdoor track for a mix of intervals, walking, jogging and running the bleachers. Turbulent! I’m now in third place with 4.77 miles. But it’s really not about “placing.” It’s about doing your PERSONAL BEST and CHEERING each other on! Thanks for the motivation, Shredders+.

N.B. Anyone that wants to join the Shredders+ Team, you are welcome anytime. Just sign up for the challenge on the Nike+ website, then post your Nike+ screen name in a comment on my blog and I’ll include you in the S+ progress reports. See http://nikeplus.nike.com/nikeplus/ to get the 411. Also see my last 6 posts for more information.

First, you look great! Awesome abs and devil-may-care hair especially!! I’m kinda partial to wild & crazy hair (and personalities) so I may be a bit biased.

Inspiring running tune: This morning it was Beth Hart’s “Lift You Up.”

I’m picking up my Nike+ gear tonight so should be able to join the party tomorrow morning.

Hey Lilla,

this is the hair-do one gets from running so fast as you do, .

I like it a lot, you are looking very good.

Juli

Haha – you grrls crack me up!

Not exactly rock hard abs YET Diane, but I’m working on it. I want abs like the picture on your website!

Dede, Welcome to the PAR-TAY! “Devil-may care” – I like that. I think the “recipe” was shower right before bed, don’t comb it and take pic first thing in the morn.
“Lift You Up” – good one!

Thanks Juli! If this is my hair after 4.77 miles, can’t imagine what it’ll look like at the end of the challenge. Maybe Marge Simpson meets Albert Einstein?
