I've been mainly posting about my weeks in one post & have loved linking up in the Weekly Wrap up - but then find myself cramming all my stuff in one long post & leaving stuff out so its not TOO long.... no one wants to be that annoying long post person... & then I'm kinda blank through the week.
So I think I'm going back to some Daily Life posts... take a work out one by one...
I don't like being silent in the blog world. Silence doesn't look good on me.
So here's last week's workout - I'll just leave it at that...
Safe to say I kicked butt ... & my hand writing isn't great when writing on a vertical area :) |
I've loved getting in the running lately... its all thanks to the beautiful weather we've been having. It's been A-MAZ-ING! Fall at its finest.
let it last Lord.
But yesterday was even more exciting because something came in the mail for me...
& no, sadly it wasn't my Hogwarts letter...
but it was my medal for my first Hogwarts Running Club race.
Never heard of that? I hadn't either until a friend turned me onto it.
Go here... just go here.... http://www.hogwartsrunningclub.org/
They have another race coming up with an even COOLER medal.
I am a Harry Potter NERD so this is just up my alley.
& apparently I'm not alone. There are all kinds of Potter nerds out there.
& to tell you how much of a nerd I am, when you register, they ask what house you are in. So I go online & take like every Harry Potter test there is on the internet - & all of them except for one, said I am a Hufflepuff.
It's a good thing I like yellow
But this past race for the month was 9 3/4K ... how fun is that? & you could do it all at once or break it up. Since I had done 12.46 miles last week, I felt like I earned this medal.
Look at the detail of the back of the medal! |
& was so giddy about putting this sticker on my car... right next to my 13.1
I actually kinda am in love with this sticker. I drive in pride now.
Do you love Harry Potter?
What house would you belong to?
I'm going to check out the Hogwarts Running Club! I read the first book when it was assigned in a Children's Lit class in college - maybe 2001 - then caught up and read the rest of the series as it was released. This summer I started rereading them all the way through. I don't know why I didn't do it sooner! They're so wonderfully written. I always get Ravenclaw.
ReplyDeleteum, that is the coolest medal ever. totally checking that running club out.
ReplyDeleteFrom what I've seen of Harry Potter I do like it, but I'm still a newb to the whole series. That medal though...SUPER CUTE. And I love the sticker too! Now I need to figure out which house I would be in.
ReplyDeleteThere's plenty of tests online - that's for sure :)
DeleteWhat the internet is good for :)
I love that you got that medal and sticker! That's so fun, and such good motivation to run. :)
ReplyDeleteI like these kind of posts! Scott likes Harry Potter and I SO wanted to be a fan! I went to every movie with him but always ended up falling a sleep at some point! I do get the 9 and 3/4 though!
ReplyDeleteWow, Hogwarts Running Club! That is really cool. I really don't know which house I would be in...Maybe Ravenclaw or Gryffindor.
ReplyDeleteThere's plenty of tests online to find out :) I had so much fun taking them & seeing if it would always come up the same
DeleteI had no idea that there was a Hogwarts running club! My boys used to love Harry Potter. And my email is alohomora....
ReplyDeleteOhhh - so you totally need to join in with this running club :) Get your boys involved in it - family affair :)
