It look me an hour and 16 minutes, but I actually ran a real 10k without dying - Best run ever! Thanks to Adam and Ang for running it with me (and to Mir for joining us at brunch after)!

Poutine from Smoke’s Poutinery LOOKS like the best poutine you could ever have in the entire world; however, it didn’t really live up to the ‘best poutine in Toronto’ claim. Regardless it was a fun night out with friends and I would go again.

halfway through a phone call with my mom
mom: are you dating anyone now?
me: nope
…five minutes later…
mom: (out of nowwhere – we were talking about groceries) …are you happy?
me: yeah I guess so….
<pause>
mom: Do your friends have my home phone number?
me: Sure….why?
mom: Well I want to be sure they know to call me in case you get shot on the subway like that guy.
me: sigh

“Picture me holding hands with strangers, hairy knuckles up, sweating and breathing onions on everyone, all the while trying not to fart, and freaking out because I was screwing up what essentially amounted to walking on the spot.”

I was going to try to be extra good today, because tomorrow is the start of week 2 in The Weight Loss Challenge.Anyways it all started off pretty well and then my friend Ian asked if I wanted to run some errands with him downtown. We ended up stopping in at Craft Burgers at Yonge/Bloor for a SUPER DELICIOUS cheeseburger with fries and onion rings….

They were soooo good I didn’t even regret the transgression, and by dinner time I figured I could save the day by having a small dinner of veggie stir fry with chicken and brown rice. YAY.

Mrs. Fields, I hate you.
About 20 minutes later things took a turn for the worse as I got a major craving while watching Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle on IFC. By the time they finally made it to White Castle (which I’ve never been to, but it looks disgusting) I had a pile of shame lying on the floor beside the couch. SHAAAAME:

Some resolutions for 2009.
1. Deny that I have any resolutions. This way friends/co-workers don’t need to know when i’m quitting.
2. Lose 10 lbs. Haaaaaa….
3. Take a language class. I’m thinking Japanese, or Portuguese.
4. Have people over more often. This way I can justify the expense of my new couch and the rest of the things I want to buy in Jan.
5. Take an MBA class. Because I need a new job
6. Sign up for Salsa class. Another class….I know, I know.
7. Travel. Brazil?
8. Run. 10k

So I thought I would have to stop halfway through, and in the last 100 metres I thought that my heart was going to explode, BUT…My first 5k was great! I ended up finishing it alive, and with only two 1 minute walking breaks. I’m looking forward to making some improvements and maybe doing to 10K next year.
I finished 811 out of 2947 by finishing in 31:10.7 minutes. Yippee!
