First off, only ONE WEEK until my birthday!! YAY!! 
Yesterday morning I went for a short run (up the hill twice) and when I was running to the hill some lady came up beside me running off of a side street. I took off and thought I left her behind me, but when I reached the bottom of the hill I stopped to tighten the strings on my pants and there she was in FRONT of me! I was like HELL NO you don't!! So I literally SPRINT .3 miles straight UP that hill and left her in the DUST. I got up to the top, turned around to come back down and saw her slowly trotting up the hill. HEHE
So then as I was passing her on the way down, she reached out her hand and gave me a high five!
How sweet was that??
