I have been TAGGED...

twice! Once by my buddy Cristina and once by my fellow runner Yas. The tags are very similar, but one has to do with running and the other is about life!

Here goes: Yas you are first!

1. How would you describe your running 10 years ago? Non-Existent. I took up running in HS to lose weight, then I picked it up again last year.

2. What is your best/worst running experience? Best: Finishing my first 1/2 marathon. It was at the finish line when it finally sunk in that I could, in fact, run 13.1 miles. I trained my ass off for that race, although I was not happy with my time, it was the most fun I have had running. Worst: A few weeks ago I ran in 102 degree weather, 4.5 miles, it was the worst experience with running ever!

3. Why do you run? At first it was for losing weight. But now I really just enjoy getting out there and just seeing how far I can go.

4. What is the best or worst piece of running advice that you've been given about running?
I NEVER seek advice about running. I may ask a ton of questions but never Advice. I try to figure out on my own what works for me.

5. Tell us something surprising about yourself that not many people would know. I would love to have 5-6 kids. Seriously. I am Mexican and Catholic, ofcourse we do it up and we do it big. I am sad that the twins are it for us!

now it's your turn Cristina:

1. What was I doing ten years ago? I was shacking up with BF(now DH) living in sin, partying, traveling and working at a small Publishing company!

2. Five things on my to do list for today: Run, file at work, hit up Target for a few camping supplies, put away all the twins laundry, clean the bathrooms.

3. Snacks I crave: kettle chips and chocolate chip cookies.

4. Things I would do if I were a billionaire: Well since I would be important, I would try to help figure out this whole energy crisis. and I would come up with the solution and become even more wealthy! and ofcourse I would pay off all my families houses, and take everyone on a great month long vacation somewhere exclusive. I WOULD MAKE A FABULOUS BILLIONAIRE!

5. Places I have lived: CA and NC
