Getting close!

I'm getting really excited for you guys! It's so close!!! I'm sending lots of good thoughts your way as you enter the homestretch with training.

Things are good here. Very gently easing back into running. No problems at all with the calf! Also, girls, have you ever heard about Tiger Balm?? I had some terrible mosquito bites on my calf and my british beau suggested I try Tiger Balm - which is basically a cure-all. There's nothing it can't do! So, it helped with the bites, but also really loosened up my calf muscle. You guys should get it - if you are feeling tight - just rub a little bit of this stuff on and you'll be back to 100%. I should say that tiger balm = stinky girl. But, even though it smells terrible - it's worth it!

I decided last night to commit to an upcoming race. I signed up for a five mile race in central park on Oct 28. I start training this week. I'm going to train as a novice - so, I don't hurt myself. But, I really need to start working towards something again.

You guys take care - Cathy
