Oh no you didn't!

If you keep up with me on Facebook and the blog you will hear about this twice, lucky you. But it did feel oh so good, so I must tell somebody else. So, I was at the end of my long run. Running here is very different. It's very hilly here, and at first when I moved it quite literally took most/all the fun out of running. I had to start basically from ground...well not zero, but you get the point. So, I was finishing my long run, and to get back to my house, I have to go up a big *@# hill. Parker, for those of you who live near by. I was about 1/2 way up, when I look back and this woman has come off of a side street (all fresh like, she must have just started her run ;). She is going to pass me, I think!! How dare she. So, I turn around again, and say to her, "this sucks!" She thinks I'm talking about the hill, she says "oh I know I hate this hill". I meant that she was going to pass me, but whatever. So, I turn back to her and say, "I just can't let you pass me on this hill, I am going to push it!!" Bye Bye. I am sure she was pushing it up that hill hard thinking, "I'm going to pass this women!" It does feel good to pass somebody up. But it doesn't feel so good to be passed. I had enough left in the tank, I kicked it, and left her in the dust. Seriously, left her in the dust. Right before I spotted her, I was tired, I wanted to stop and walk...just for a minute. I think I was literally talking to myself telling myself not to stop, that I'd be mad at myself if I did, when she started her move. She probably heard me even, and thought that I was a bit loony, especially after we "chatted". This momma doesn't care, because I won!! I was so happy, I did indeed have a fresh wave of endorphins flood over me. Yay, for the small victories!!!!!!!!!!!!
