NO MORE EXCUSES!!!

Last week was the week of excuses. There was always some reason I could give myself and I didn’t run all week. I’ve decided that enough is enough. No more excuses. I was going to get up this morning and run NO MATTER WHAT.

So today I got up, got dressed and headed out. Apparently it was raining (that’s what I get for checking the weather without my glasses on) but I was already up and dressed, so out I went. My iPod was very clever this morning and knew that I really wanted to listen to “What Makes You Beautiful” by One Direction. That song is pure bubble gum goodness, which is exactly what I need at 6:30am, even more when it’s raining. I may or may not have listened to it several times. It was actually a pretty fun run. Apparently, running in the rain makes me run faster and I ran 9:42 mile. All in all, it was a good (and wet) way to start the day!

In other news, Team Happy Hippo is having our first fundraiser on June 21st from 6pm to 9pm at Slane (on MacDougal and Bleecker). Keep your eye out for the official Facebook event, but you’re now officially invited! There will be drink specials, a raffle, and live music starts at 9pm, if anyone wants to stick around. It would make the hippo very happy if you came!
