11 Things


This has been going around the blogosphere.  Since I am not running, it gives me something to blog about.

  • Post these rules;
  • You must post 11 random things about yourself;
  • Answer the questions set for you in their post;
  • Create 11 new questions for the people you tag to answer;
  • Go to their blog and tell them you’ve tagged them;
  • No stuff in the tagging section about you are tagged if you are reading this. You legitimately have to tag 11 people!

Since I am NOT running, I am going to post 11 things about NOT running.

  1. I am working from home now so I don’t have to get out of my pjs or shower (unless I want to).
  2. I just learned to knit. I have made 2 hats and now I’m making a scarf. I even plan to make socks.
  3. I can’t wait to return to yoga.  The balance on my right foot is getting to be awesome.
  4. I really don’t watch much TV… the only shows I follow are The Good Wife, Grey’s Anatomy and Private Practice. Though my hubby kinda got me to watch 30 Rock.
  5. When I could cook, I didn’t.  Now that I can’t, I want to.  My friends have been bringing over dinner for my hubby so he is eating better than before I was injured.
  6. I may not be exercising my body but I am exercising my mind.  345 is so far my high for Scrabble vs the computer.  I won $3 at mah jongg last week
  7. I made 2 digital photo books of memories from tennis and from running (Just in case.)
  8. I am trying to eat healthy…salads, vegetables, fruit, etc.  I am even taking vitamins. (I still sneak in a dessert or two and ice cream if it’s available.)
  9. I love to read but I’m not reading as much as I thought I would.
  10. My hubby loves to watch the Military channel.  He never served…never wanted to.  I just don’t get it.
  11. I still read running blogs.  I don’t want to miss out on what you guys are doing.

I wasn’t actually tagged but I picked these to answer from 365 Days of Awesome (love that title):

  1. Do you cross train? (Be honest!) Nope.  I used to play  tennis (doubles) and yoga – does that count?
  2. What’s your FAVORITE thing about running? Crossing the finish line at the end of a race.
  3.  And your LEAST favorite?  Bad runs…days when you just don’t have it and you don’t know why. And INJURIES!!!!
  4. If you could eat only one food for the rest of your life, what is it?  Ice cream.
  5. What came first, chicken or the egg?  Chicken.
  6. You’re stuck on a deserted island – what three books do you wish you had with you?  To read: Twilight, Hunger Games, Le Petit Prince. To look at: my new photo books (tennis & running) & my wedding album
  7. How much time do you spend getting ready before leaving your house for a normal day of work/school/whatever you do?  An hour because I like to have breakfast, read the paper and watch the Today show before I take a shower & get dressed.
  8. Do you love the treadmill as much as I do?  I hate it.  Only do it if it is raining.
  9. My birthday is coming up (in 6 months)… want to come have a party?  Sure, where do you live? I live in NY.
  10. What should I get The H for his birthday (next week)?  Does he have an iPad?
  11. Have you joined Team Gab yet?  Can I if I can’t run?

Now my 11 questions:

  1. What made you start running?
  2. What is your favorite race?
  3. This year’s running goal?
  4. Do you usually run alone or with others?
  5. Favorite time of day to run?
  6. Why did you start a blog?
  7. Favorite TV show?
  8. Favorite actor?
  9. Favorite movie of all time?
  10. Favorite athlete?
  11. What would you do if you couldn’t run anymore?

If you are reading this, consider yourself tagged.   I love to learn about other bloggers/runners!!

Happy Running!

 

One thought on “11 Things

  1. I have to do this this weekend and was going to tag you! Oh well.
    I started running because I love to race and be competitive.
    This year’s running goal is to bike, swim and run!
    If I couldn’t run anymore I would bike even more in the summer and swim all year and probably use the elliptical – puke puke. That is assuming I could do the other things.
