Beautiful Blogger Award

January 16, 2010

Thank you to Anne at Asthma and the Gift of Running for the esteemed Beautiful Blogger Award! I am truly honored! If you haven’t visited Anne’s blog, stop by and say hi!
One of the requirements of this award is that I share 7 things about myself so here goes:
1. Modern Caveman and I started dating as the result of a bench press contest. I shot off my mouth and said, with training, I thought I could bench 125 lbs. I hired the most muscle-bound trainer at the gym and pumped way for 6 weeks until the big showdown. I ended up lifting a respectable (for me) 115 but got creamed anyway.
2. We moved to England 6 weeks after we were married and lived there for a few years. I took up English dressage and loved every minute of it.
3. We were the first visitors to enter the Colosseum in Rome on our first wedding anniversary.
4. I am a washed up competitive figure skater who still teaches skating lessons from time to time.
5. I knocked my 2 front teeth out in a cycling accident when I was much younger. The main reason this year’s planned duathlon is a big milestone for me.
6. I hold a red belt in Tae Kwon Do, just one test away from a black belt.
7. I am the oldest girl of 6 kids: 3 boys and 3 girls. Yes, Marcia Brady comes to mind.
Now it is my turn to bestow this award on 7 more bloggers:
1. Erica at I run because…I can
2. Kasey at Blonde Mom Runs
3. Liz at Lizard Runs
4. Dash at Dash’s Bites
5. Evolv Rose at Concrete and Coffee
6. Paula at Paulawannacracker
7. The Linz at Destination26.2

Have a great weekend!

    Thats so cool that you lived in England. I have a black belt in Tae Kwon Do 🙂 but I got it when I was in like 5th grade, so I really don't remember much at all, but I still have it!

    Your blog really is cool! Where did you get the background? A site? a kit?

    I figure skated too — would love to go to London! Awesome list!!!

marciashealthyslice I'm a working mom who, as part of a mid-life challenge, decided to run a marathon for kicks. I didn't plan on it becoming a hobby, but it did. I qualified for Boston at my second marathon and finished the 6 World Marathon Majors in London in 2019. Set no small goals. You never know what you're capable of until you try!
