Fun Fact Friday

Nothing special going on around here. Had a tough Thursday night run with the group. We did a few mile repeats at tempo and 10K paces. These legs were not feeling it after a two mini runs on Wed, but I survived!

On to Fun Fact Friday...

1. I have two younger brothers. One is just two years younger, which made it nice because we grew up together and did a lot of the same things (band, sports, lots of studying). The other is 10 years younger and no, he wasn't an accident. He's turning 17 next month and I can hardly believe it. He's nothing like the other brother. He's kind of a rebel, doesn't care about homework and doesn't see the value of college...yet. Alas, I love them both.

2. I'm a jewelry snob and yet, I really don't have much jewelry. Ironic, no? Not really...I'm picky and jewelry is expensive so I rarely bite the bullet. Although I do have a few pieces in mind from JessLC when that tax refund comes back to me!

3. My family never went on a family vacation on a plane together. My parents really liked the whole road trip in a mini van idea. UGH! Needless to say, I love to fly. My mom flew for the first time since she was 13 with me to my very first 1/2 marathon in Nashville!

4. I'm really craving a donut today. Who cares about bikini bodies anyway?? ;)

5. I woke up at 4:11 am and never went back to sleep. I hate bad nights of sleep. Luckily, they're very rare for me.

6. I just started mentoring for the local chapter of Big Brothers Big Sisters. I'm hanging out with my youth for the first time this weekend!

Okay, I better get going with my morning to do list (trash, dog walking, pushups, breakfast, etc)! I have a fun list of things planned this weekend, including a bike ride, a girls night and a long run. Have an awesome weekend. What are your top three Fun Friday Facts?

I hate nights where I wake up like that and can't get back to sleep. Happened all the time in my last job.

Our family also never flew anywhere together. There were 5 kids, though, so I guess that is why. So my first plane trip was the summer after my Freshman year of college! Now I fly all the time!

Your youngest brother is the same age as my little brother. Such an annoying age. I have hopes he'll get better and smarter as he gets older - I did so I have high hopes for him ;)

We rarely flew anywhere either, mostly because my mom HATES flying!

Thats' very cool that you're starting mentoring youth! Let us know how it goes!

Speaking from a teacher's point of view, 17 is MUCH better to deal with than 14.
