Whoever is in charge of marketing for the Army Ten-Miler really knows how to inspire a girl. I was having the kind of day where I couldn't wait to come home and take a bath (the rain always does that to me), and then I opened my mailbox to find a postcard advertising this year's race.
But it wasn't just an informational postcard about how to sign up. It had my PHOTO from the 2006 race on the front. I'm in the new running outfit I bought just for the event and, if I do say so myself, look like I'm chugging along without too much trouble. (Of course, that's probably because I was going at a leisurely 10-minute mile pace.) Across the top, the card says, "Kimberly, you ran ARMY STRONG in 2006 -- Challenge yourself again in 2008!"
I think I might have accept that challenge.

Wow-that's some brilliant marketing! I wonder if I could hire someone to come take secret pics of me at the beginning of my gym workout, and mail them to me on days when I'm slacking...
:)
Trish...that is HILARIOUS!!!
