If you don’t know about “The Oatmeal“. You should.

Audrey and I have signed up to run the Beat the Blerch Half-Marathon next month in Carnation, Washington. It’s going to be a hoot!

What is The Blerch? He’s my inner sloth. The demon on my back telling me to eat more pizza. Run tomorrow. I try not to listen to his siren song. I will beat him.

In preparation for the Half-Marathon, I finally upped my mileage and ran 7 miles. It wasn’t entirely pleasant, it definitely pushed me hard, but I did it without injuring myself.

Keep running.
