Personal:

I was a single mom.  Two times over.  We all survived, despite the fact that I make atrocious decisions.  Then, I met a man I didn't deserve.  And he loves me so much.  And I love him. We lived in sin and bought a house for two years then hired a judge and officially got married(to our great delight and also the delight of our mothers), then a month later he was diagnosed with cancer.  Well we survived all that and he's 100% fine now.  But, we're really out of shape and really busy with kids and jobs and running just isn't my priority and there's so many other layers to all of it, but I'm running anyway.  This is my failure blog now.  Just to log that one run a week if I snag it.  
Somehow that matters and I want that run recorded.

Total Distance
9.26

7:38 AP.  I caught the tail end of a rainstorm and then it was overcast and much cooler than yesterday!  Amazing how much difference 20 degrees cooler makes!  I ran a much faster pace today yet was much more comfortable and really enjoyed the run.  The pace was brisk but well within my aerobic range.  I ran in Derby which has a lot of good long inclines and declines so I got some hill work in.  I think I will run there once a week.  The hills are not terrible steep but there were some pretty solid mile long inclines and it was good practice to do some up and down running and just practice maintaining steady effort.

Glad the heat broke today so that you had a good run! Nice pace--you braved those hills well!

Remember the Malachi Crunch?

From seeaprilrun on Tue, May 25, 2010 at 13:13:16 from 68.103.243.136

Since I hadn't any clue what a Malachi crunch was, I looked it up in the urban dictionary online.

1. Demolition Derby maneuver in which two contestants working in tandem crash into an opponent simultaneously from opposite sides, thereby creating the effect of a trash compactor. Coined in an episode of Happy Days, when the Malachi Brothers execute this maneuver on Pinky Tuscadero's car at the climax of the demolition derby. Pinky survived. 2. Any wanton attack that involves a two-pronged blitzkrieg by equal forces, converging on an incapacitated target. 3. Lascivious maneuver in which a female with ample bosom attacks a passed-out concert-goer with said bosoms, placed on either side of said concert-goers head, and subsequently crushing that head.

From Burt on Tue, May 25, 2010 at 13:21:34 from 206.19.214.144

LOL! Yeah, I looked it up, too. I should have warned you not to read the 3rd definition.

From Tracy on Tue, May 25, 2010 at 14:11:15 from 209.175.177.37

Ha ha ha. What even prompted that?

From Bonnie on Tue, May 25, 2010 at 14:15:33 from 64.119.33.134

Too funny! I spit out tea all over Dean's keyboard (don't tell).

From Burt on Tue, May 25, 2010 at 14:35:26 from 206.19.214.144

I always think of the Malachi brothers whenever I hear the word derby.

From Burt on Tue, May 25, 2010 at 14:36:18 from 206.19.214.144

Bonnie - you need to learn to not drink liquids while on the blog.

From Tracy on Tue, May 25, 2010 at 14:36:22 from 209.175.177.37

I should have seen the logic in that.

From Burt on Tue, May 25, 2010 at 14:40:18 from 206.19.214.144

But you know, Tracy. There's usually no rhyme or reason to what I say.

From Tracy on Tue, May 25, 2010 at 14:44:33 from 209.175.177.37

You're a stream of consciousness writer. There's a weird sort of rhyme or reason to that.

From KP on Tue, May 25, 2010 at 14:44:49 from 65.208.22.26

hahahaha

the 3rd definition is hilarious! i spit coke onto my desk. thankfully it missed my keyboard this time. bonnie, your secret is safe with me...

From Bonnie on Tue, May 25, 2010 at 15:50:52 from 128.196.228.134

Drinking and blogging do not mix KP ;)

From Smooth on Tue, May 25, 2010 at 16:11:27 from 174.23.172.155

TOOO FUNNY!!! Who knows bosoms can be weapons! :)

NICE run! Glad the weather finally cools down for ya!

From Burt on Tue, May 25, 2010 at 16:42:19 from 206.19.214.144

Smooth - clearly you've never seen the fembots in Austin Powers International Man of Mystery.

From Smooth on Tue, May 25, 2010 at 16:46:22 from 174.23.172.155

Burt ~ nope, never seen nor heard of such fembots...must be some bosomnator!

From Burt on Tue, May 25, 2010 at 18:51:36 from 206.19.214.144

Thanks Julie. I can't compete with a dozen bosoms anyway.

From Marathon Dreamer on Tue, May 25, 2010 at 19:52:35 from 200.52.168.6

Excellent!! You are so speedy!!

From SlowJoe on Tue, May 25, 2010 at 22:26:17 from 184.79.24.255

Nice run, lots of briskness lately. Beautiful thing to see the how the discussion of Derby somehow led to the Fembots from Austin Powers.

From ChrisM on Wed, May 26, 2010 at 07:14:40 from 130.88.16.210

I onced witnessed a variation on a Malachi Crunch: I was on a placement in a primary school and we took the children to the library, we had to walk through the shopping centre to get there. One of the boys was happily walking along not looking where he was going when he walked straight into some womens cleavage since she had her arms by her side at the time!

She found it rather amusing, what laughs we had!
