Old skool lists

My friend Danielle invited me to do a list.  This is the same idea as those lists that you would receive in an email or see in a note on Facebook.  Then you would have to copy and paste it, change your answers specifically to you and fire off that email to multiple friends or tag them in the note.  Danielle claims to be the only one who enjoyed doing them, but I will admit, I used to do them all the time.  Here we go.  Here is my list.

5 Things I have a passion for:

1. My New York Knicks

2. Creating costumes and dressing up at parties

3. Transformers - Everything - collecting figures, watching movies/cartoons, t-shirts, etc

4. Trying new things (this year I've tried a 5k race, 2 half marathons, a duathlon, skating on the river and Zumba.  Future races include 2 mud runs)

5. Running and Racing!


5 Things I would like to do before I die:

5 people I invite to do this list:

1.  Honestly, I don't knowingly know any bloggers aside from Danielle and she already did this.  I also don't like asking people to do these as most people don't.  So I'll leave it up to you.  If you decide you want to make your own list, let me know and I'll read it and add you to the list below.  I really down anyone will do it, let alone 5, but I challenge you to surprise me.

Danielle also has a blog: I Eat Therefore I Run.  She has been incredibly helpful during the my journey with running.  She's given me lots of advice like when I first started running, Iran 21 straight days of 5k.  She told me not to run every day, that I needed rest days or I could cause injury to myself.  Or suggested I buy shoes online at Wiggle.  I saved $40 buying a 2nd pair of the same shoe here and got free shipping.  She also helped me start my blog with constructive suggestions.  Well the other day she posted a beginner's guide to running.  Some items she's already shared with me, but others are completely new.  I will try and incorporate more of this into my regime, so I recommend you read this whether you are new to running or think you know it all already.  I've learned first hand that there's so much info on running that it's great to read the point of view from others.  You can then use that info to see what works best for you and be the best person you can be.
