Half Marathon

I'm on my second week of training for the Sprit of St. Louis Half Marathon. So far so good. I love it. I've been alternating running for 5-10 minutes and walking a couple of minutes... Yesterday I ran 4 miles at a pace of 12.9 minutes/mile. To me that's pretty awesome... Next Sunday its 5 miles!

Way to go, me

In Ryan's words on a myspace bulletin (he rocks my world, btw!):

"At Isabel's lab where she works, there was a mandatory inspection that all the labs in the building had to undergo(6 labs total). It was a big deal. She was in charge of making sure her lab was up to code before the inspection. On a scale of 100, each lab needed at least a 90 to pass.

She had still not seen her lab's score, when there was word that the five other labs had all failed the inspection. Even after the inspector told some of them that everything had looked good in their lab. Were all the labs getting failed just to prove a point? Not so. Isabel's score when she finally saw it: 98.

So if she's in your friend's list, please tell her way to go on a job well done."

And according to my boss:

"Congratulations Isabel,
Good work and thanks for making this the best report ever!"

I rock!
