Side note: That crazy ass scientologist may jump on couches and talk nonsense about post partum, but he sure is watchable in movies still. I think he's made a deal with the devil so that he can still look young and hot. See Night and Day if you don't believe me.
Anyway, I stole the phrase "Tom Cruise Run" from a recent episode of Cougar Town, where they joked that everyone looks like they can outrun a truck when they pump their arms frantically like Tom. I've actually kidded to Dan that I do the same thing when I jog, even though I barely clock a 10 minute mile.
My really bad metaphor is that I've been Tom Cruise running:
Not. Stopping. To. Catch. My. Breath.
Things have calmed down a bit, so I finally have time to post about my birthday, upcoming trip, and New Year's resolution soon. More on the 10K once I get pictures (Dan ran it too! So proud of him because he went from the couch to running 6.2 miles in under four weeks). It's nice to be able to breathe a bit!
Just for fun, I thought I'd share one of my running playlists. You know, in case anyone is doing a little Tom Cruise running themselves.I actually have songs I never really listen to in any other occasion, but they're catchy enough to keep a steady pace to.
