Three Things Thursday (I know, it's been a while since I did one)
1. Last hard run
Last night was the last hard track practice before race day. Coach Paula was there early and had started her 10 x 800m workout, her fave pre-race workout. We took a cue from her and did a scaled-back version, 6 x 800.
1 mile warm-up
800s (half-mile intervals) at: 3.48, 3.43, 3.38, 3.40, 3.39, 3.36
1 mile cool-down
According to this post from last July, these are good times for me. I'm feeling cautiously optimistic about the race! I want that new PR!
Mileage (somehow the addition has gotten screwed up somewhere. I'm going to trust that runningahead.com has it right somehow):
214.7 + 3.9 + 5.0 = 223.5 miles
2. The news!
Mr. Joanna and I bought a house! I will post a few pictures of it later. It's a great place and I feel lucky to have found it. We close in mid-June. I still get tied up in knots regularly about the whole move, but at the same time I'm excited. And anxious about selling our current place.
3. Other odds & ends
I thought I'd throw in some of my recent crafty projects while I'm at it. I've had SO much fun making these. It's a good creative outlet for me and it's productive--two things that make me happy. Check out my recent projects here and here. These are pages from our 2005 trip to Alaska. I'm finally almost finished!

Congratulations on your new house!! I'm looking forward to seeing photos!!
How exciting!! Congrats on the new house - can't wait to see pics. I really like the new layouts too. :) Are you ladies interested in the Crop on May 8th?
No question in obtaining the new PR. Remember to stay with your game plan and not go out too quick.
Hook up withthe pacers or let Mere do it. She can run faster but shouldn't. Helps her out too.
RE: Headbands
I have the same problem (and a child's size head) and the only ones that work for me are Bondi Bands. I've found the solid colors work better than the prints though as the printed ones are a slinkier fabric. Hope this helps!!!
Congrats on the new house!!!
