WHERE HAS THE SUMMER GONE???  You would think, as a teacher, that summer would be relaxing and stress-free, but NOPE.  Although I've been busy and stressed, it's been a GOOD, and productive busy and stressed. I ran another ... http://www.fitfeetblog.com/?p=612 I'm still here!  It's been a very busy week for me, which is why I haven't had time to post much; summer school started and so did training for the Chicago Marathon!  I have still been reading all of your blogs, which as always, has been a great source of ... http://www.fitfeetblog.com/?p=609 One of my recent grads thought it would be funny to post this on my facebook wall earlier today: Bonus points to anyone who knows why this is a false (although clever!) proof :) Thanks for all the lovely comments and support from my last post.  Today was another amazing conference day ... http://www.fitfeetblog.com/?p=605  I just realized that I have been tagged by the wonderful Melissa, which is perfect because I need something to talk about!  And I love surveys, so here goes :) Rules: 1. Once you are tagged post a picture of where you blog. 2. Feel free to tell us a little about your ... http://www.fitfeetblog.com/?p=598 I found a dollar on the street the other morning while out for a run with my husband.  I was so excited!  I never find money.  Maybe I'll have to start running in the morning more often!

The second project?  I talked to ... http://www.fitfeetblog.com/?p=586 Training for the Chicago Marathon starts in about 2 weeks!!  I'm very excited (and a little nervous, now that I've actually set a time goal!).  Reading all of your blogs about the distances others have been running has made me very anxious to get back to it.  I've been running ... http://www.fitfeetblog.com/?p=574 My computer is being weird tonight and I can't stop it :)  None of the pictures want to show up on any webpages, and the internet is crazy slow.  Of course it had to happen when the computer genius is out of town!  I'm so glad Josh gets to come ... http://www.fitfeetblog.com/?p=571 I am truly appreciative of all the comments and advice everyone has given me.  I'm having to re-read some of them over an over.  The truth is that this past week I was really confident that I could stay on top of things, and now I'm shaken.  It's how it ... http://www.fitfeetblog.com/?p=566
