H&F Open Letter Thursday
Dear legs and feet,
Is going injury free for just one month too much to ask? Really? Stop conspiring against me!

Dear self,
Do not ever forget to put your sports bra in your gym bag again. Ever. C25K Week 4, Day 2 + DDDs + regular underwire bra = ouch.
Dear cholesterol,
LDL, you better be down. HDL, you better be up. We have a test on Monday and we better pass it with flying colors. You've failed the past two tests. Your buddy, triglycerides, got the hint 6 months ago and is now in check. This is our one year mark and if you don't fix yourself, they'll try to make me medicate you and I really don't want to do that.
Oh Mother Nature...
Hi. Please keep the weather nice and cool and sunny for the race that GRKaters and I are running in Toledo on Sunday. Kthx.

Dear Head Cold,
Please go away, you're making me very cranky.

Dear trail race on saturday,
I'm very excited to run you, but know that I haven't trained as well as I should've. Please be nice to me and don't be too technical.
Thanks, nervous racer
Dear Body,
Is it the time change? Is it something I ate? Jet Lag? Really, can we stop with this gas already!?! Good thing I have an office to myself, because I'm stinking up this place!

Dear Brain,
You've been writing reports for years. Can you please just crank this one out without stopping to check the nest every 10 minutes. It will be better when you are done, I promise.

Dear knees,
Yay for you! The run this morning was fantastic. Who knew that it would only take a few months of PT and more money than I care to admit to make you all better?
Love,
Your very excited owner
Dear shoes that I'm going to get today,
Work well, okay?
Thanks, the girl who misses her Ride 3s

Dear brain that is working overtime to sabotage my 1/2 marathon,
You are delusional and are imagining pains that aren't really there. You have been told this by my doc 50 times. Get over yourself.
Sincerely,

Dear office,
Can you please just organize, pack and move everything for me? I've been getting in early, staying late, etc and I have had zero energy for my mid-week runs. Next Friday can't come fast enough. Oh, then once we're in the new space, please unpack yourself as well.
Signed,
Stressed over the move
