I'm Going, I'm Going!

Happy hump day, world! Have you entered my giveaway? You've got a little less than twenty-four hours to win a chance to make your feet the most kickin' on the block. (Sidenote: I fixed the date on the post. I'm actually dumb.)

Speaking of kickin' feet. I gave a pair to my mom because she just started Zumba! I asked her to send me a picture for the blog she sent me this picture last night to show them off.

You're jealous and you know it!

Moving right along! Yesterday I tweeted something that looked a little bit like this.

The dancing and smiling was a bit excessive, I promise.

I'm going to Fitbloggin'!!!! I cannot tell you how beyond excited I am to be going. This is my very first conference/convention/etc. and I couldn't be happier. And thanks to me, you'll be able to read all about one of the sessions. :)

I've already had one brave soul volunteer to be this ball of energy's roommate, but we're always looking for another roommate! So if you're going and would like to stay with this duo, definitely let me know and send me an e-mail or a tweet! (Look at my About Page for info!)

Also of important note, I found a brilliant thing to get me through my run! I saw some people raving about listening to podcasts to help the time pass, so I headed over and downloaded one of my idols' latest podcast.

Her picture, not mine. :)

TRY IT. I love chatting when I'm running. But now Jillian can focus on doing all the chatting while I focus on getting my run done. I'm in the market for some new podcasts to listen to, so I'd love some suggestions!

And I'll finish things off with the blog challenge to make sure that I do it for today. Wha-bam.

Day 11: Write about the worst injury you've ever had. I feel like I'm going to be a jerk because I don't have any horror stories to tell.

Do you have wood by you? Can you knock on it? Thanks.

No, I haven't had a huge injury, but I've had lots and lots of little injuries. My knees/ankles/hips and the muscles that control those joints are always going through Hell with dance. It's fine, I do it because I love it. I've learned to deal with it. I've even broken the rule that dancers shouldn't run because it's bad for their knees. GET AT ME, now I've got some more pains to deal with. And I love it.

Also, when I used to play volleyball (oh, my knees probably didn't like that either) my wrists were POUNDED. I still do have had skinny little bird wrists that were spraining and acting up ALL of the time. When my wrist wasn't wrapped, it was a good day.

So yeah. A lot of little injuries. Hopefully they'll just add up to a big injury. That's a tough, tough hurdle to jump.

That's all folks!!

Any suggestions for podcasts for me to listen to? Want to room with us at Fitbloggin'/are you going?

  1. Wait...it's a rule that dancer's shouldn't run because it's bad for their knees? Interesting...

    I mean, I'm not allowed to run but that's because of my inflamed cartilage not because I'm a dancer haha.

    Anyhoo, I'm going to enter yo contest now. haha

    1. Haha, not a rule but a stereotype. I always hear it anyway. :)
