I’ve run 10 miles 3 or 4 times, I know I can finish this race. My pace has improved by a minute. Seattle Rock N Roll here I come in 26 more days! I’ve also signed up for San Jose and I am trying to get registered for Chicago Rock N Roll half marathons as well. I doubt that I will ever do a full marathon with my bad knees, but doing 3-4 half marathon races this year will satisfy my need for a challenge. If you are thinking of doing a half marathon… you can absolutely do it!

I received my letter today. I PASSED! CNRN certification under my belt. CCRN may be my next certification.

I stumbled upon these web sites and waas surprised that some food scraps like RICE should not be composted.

Now, admitedly I have not done any research on this matter yet, but if you have a couple of minutes to check out those sites it’s really interesting stuff. There is a stress on repurposing on the recycling site, however there are just so many things you can do with certain things, so we have to start being responsible about what we buy and how it is packaged. Less is more as I keep telling my friends!

My CFL bulb needed to be replaced. Home depot and your public utility should recycle these for you. HP also provides recycling for used printer cartridges with postage paid envelopes. They came with the new cartridges that I bought, but I’m betting that the web site provides more information on that.

pack it in, pack it out!
