"Just Can't Get Enough" - THE BEP

We interrupt NCAA basketball viewing to bring you this post. 

Yes, it was close [U of A win] but I'll take it. 

Caroline - come on! Duke played Hampton [they freaking better kill a team that's ranked 16].

Okay.

So today was long run day.

How long?  [Thanks to MO - this guy should be a coach].

This long:

Which meant I needed ice.  It's 90 degrees here today.  I can't even ice in  my pool any more.  sad.  sad.

So - where do you go to buy ice when you are smelly, sweaty and don't want to run into any one you know?

you.
bet.
cha.

I'm lovin' it.

a w e s o m e !

What's even awesome-R . . . .

. . . . .

Getting to have a girl's night   t o n i g h t .

just
me
and
my
Peanut.

Ohhhh and remember this from yesterday?

Here's what I found on one of our toilets last night . . . as her reply . . .

She got the "green" water part right too.
"Mom, it's the right kind of peA green."

Happy Friday!

Just Can't Get Enough...makes me think of Depeche Mode.
Nice long run! Even more impressive is the toilet art in your household!

SO FUNNY about Peanut and the toilet seat. Also, 90 degrees? Oh man, I would MELT.

SWEET run.

Thirty+ miles on the treadmill .... good God woman! You never cease to amaze. Donating to your charity run as soon as I finish this comment. Enjoy your time with your daughter.

Caroline said...

It was a massacre
Basketball 101 served by DUKE.
1 down, 5 to go.

30.24 miles on the machine no wonder why you cannot think clearly when it is time to pick a winner for NCAA!!! I mean I would be confused also IF I could do that kind of superwoman run!

I had your Cats winning today but they are going down against Texas. then you will need to wear blue!!

Anne said...

Wow!
That peanut of yours has her mom's wonderful sense of humor :)

LB said...

Wow....you're just simply amazing!
Don't be hatin' on my blue devils now....they're totally gonna be repeat champs!
We're right behind you with the temps here in NC....83 today ugh!

BabyWeightMyFatAss said...

That's a lot of miles! Congrats! go you!

Char said...

I was thinking the 30 was a lot in kilometers then I realized it was miles. That's more than a marathon! No wonder you needed ice.

ShutUpandRun said...

OK, seriously, 30 miles on the treadmill. Is there anything you can't do??? Amazing.

Patrick Mahoney said...

I didn't know they sold ice at McD's. Probably filled with trans fat and way too much sodium but whatevs, it's for an ice bath. Unless that crap can soak through your pores.

H Love said...

30 miles....amazing!! I never asked but tell me more why you prefer the mill to outside? You are COOL!

Melissa Cunningham said...

Chris K said...

Please, just any team but Duke. When you have a real girls night, let me know, I'm flying over.

Emz said...

H love. Bad knees. Less jarring on mill.

Chris k. May 5th. And. I couldn't. Freaking. Agree more. Ohio. Zags. Aztecs. Any any any one.

Jill said...

If I drove through McDs to get ice, I'd probably have to get a McFlurry :(. Good thing I can't run that far. Yet!

Happy Girls' Night out!!! :)

The Green Girl said...

I had no idea you could buy ice at McDonald's!

Molly said...

JAW Droppin' good post! : )

Jason said...

Didn't we agree to not talk about the NCAA until either Duke or AZ was out? I thought we had an agreement....

Call it what you want but you gotta win the first to win the last....you remember Duke winning that one last year right????

Nelly said...

30 miles on a treadmill?!? are you kidding? Glad Arizona got it done, I'll be cheering for them tomorrow! go PAC-10!

Unknown said...

30 miles? In one sitting? On the treadmill? Too bad I wasn't there feeding you with gluten free home bakes goodies. Together we could have gotten you to 50 miles! haha. Impressive, really! you amaze me!

Marlene said...

McDonald's sells ice?? Huh... you learn something new everyday!!

30 MILES?!?!?! WOOT!

Unknown said...

And you just won my "hero of the day" award for running 30+ miles on a treadmill. (the winner of the award yesterday was a type 1 diabetic who finished a 100 miler in 17.5 hours). :) Your title will stick until someone impresses me more... which will probably just be you again! :) Hope you had a great weekend, Emz!

Julie D. said...

amazing run! crazy awesome. i'm writing the leprechaun green pee thing down for next year!

Caroline said...

March 25th: it is ON.

Emz said...

Caroline. If Duke wins. I'll wear the Duke shirt for two days.

Matty O said...

I second DRog... McD's sells ice? I thought you were going there to get CUPS full of ice LOL, I wasn't going to ask it seemed like you had done that before ;)

Glad to be a "distraction" I mean coach for ya haha.

Great job once again.

Score: Peanut - 1, EMZ - 1. Its a "draw" haha.

The toilet is hilarious! And 30 miles of running is impressive enough, and on a treadmill make you even more awesome!

Big Daddy Diesel said...

I love that the fast food places sell ice in AZ! So helpful especially during football season.

So I'm catching up on posts and WOW WOW WOW your charity run sounds Freaking. Awesome.

You are the Best. Really really are. What a great cause. Date is marked on my calendar. I might just show up at 3 am to say Hi :)

Mine stops abruptly after 90 minutes. annoying
