It was another heart-wrenching day for America.

The town of West, Texas was a little too close to home for me. I grew up 15 miles away in Hillsboro. West was our high school rivals and everyone had a cousin or two from there. Those small towns in Texas are like that. The news last night was just unsettling. Please keep that humble town in your thoughts and prayers. They have a long road ahead of them.

Now…it’s time to watch 17 cat videos to feel better about life.

So this week I have just been sluggish and I have eaten all the things. That all changed today. I drank a ton of water and eat some delicious chicken and veggies. The rest of the week will be about damage control. Ready to break in to the 210’s!

This weekend is going to involve a lot of running which I’m super excited for!
On Saturday, I’m running in the Palace Saloon 5k close to campus. It’s actually a Tallahassee classic. It should be a lot of fun!

That’s right, I’m No. 1000!

Then on Sunday, I’m running in my first charity run!  A few days ago, Shannon from Badass Fitness (a fellow Earthlete) had heard that most of the runners in the Boston Marathon were forced to stop at around Mile 21, 5.2 miles away from the finish line. She thought that we needed to finish the race for them. So on Sunday, we will be running 5.2 miles in Southwood, followed by going to Momo’s where a portion of the proceeds will go to the Boston Red Cross and other important causes. If you are interested in running, check out the event here!

So that’s about it. After everything that has been going on this week, it’s nice to know that it will end on a high note. See ya tomorrow.
