The Denver Diver

Woke up this morning, smiled at the rising sun.

Upcoming Races

I may have been a little trigger happy this morning and signed up for four more summer/fall races on top of the ones I’m already scheduled to run….

  • Tough Mudder - June 9
  • Stadium Stampede 10K - June 24
  • Evergreen Tri Sprint - July 15
  • Drenched Run - August 19 ( My inner kid couldn’t resist the fact that I get a water gun with registration.)
  • Retro Run - August 26 (Dear Neon, Please come out to play with me. Xoxo.)
  • Rock n’ Roll Half Marathon Denver - September 22nd

Oi. That’s all I have to say about that.

On the schedule this weekend (besides about a bazillion hours at work): the Color Run with a team of peeps from school. I’m not totally sure what to expect tomorrow morning, but I do anticipate this being the craziest, most laid-back race I’ve ever participated in. I’ll report back later on whether the color actually comes out of my hair… Via: onebumpyroad

Pretty Lights - I Know The Truth

The song getting me through finals, accompanying no sleep, enough coffee to fuel a small army, study/dance breaks, too many 3am nights still at school, late night gummy bear binges, and too many drug names/actions/indications to possibly remember. And after all this is over….then it’s officially summer. And my new summer motto? Zero fucks given. Crude but I think it sums things up nicely. Watch out rooftop bars, summer seasonal brews, Rockies games, and driving with the windows down…I’m coming for you.

This is Biggie. I adopted him from the Denver Dumb Friends League last week, and it’s turned out to be one of the best decisions I’ve made in a long time. Having him around makes it so much easier to come home to my (until recently) empty apartment. It’s amazing what such a little cat can do for my peace of mind and sanity. Not to mention he’s a big lover, purrs non-stop, and is, clearly, such a thug.

I have never, ever been more excited for summer, for long weekends at the pool, BBQs, sloshball in the park, early morning runs, shorts and neon colors, Red Rocks concerts, and driving with the windows down, music blaring. Despite the fact that I’m beyond ready for all of those things, I’m also really excited that I found these skis on sale today and promptly bought them. I’ve been eyeing the MissDemeanors since the begginnig of last winter, and with one thing and another never pulled the trigger. Thanks to an unexpected bonus check from the hospital, these babies are on their way to me. Let’s hope next year’s ski season is better than this one!
