I've been married to my husband for 29 years. We have four children and four grandkids.  I'm the department secretary for an automotive safety company. In my spare time (??? spare time???) I sculpt as a hobby and hope one day to do it as a career. www.lorimetcalfdolls.blogspot.com

So legs felt heavy at the start but as the run progressed they felt better. Not too bad, in fact it felt good to run, I have been missing it on my days off. I really need to work on getting my diet back in shape, I think I have let it go on vacation long enough. Time to start keeping it on track again!

Probably the worst thing is still the chaffing especially under my left arm. Hopefully this will get better soon.

So a few observations from my rest day yesterday. I went to the gym and just did a bit of upper body weights and then abs. But I'm a horrible people watcher. I don't know if this is because I sculpt, but even before that I drew faces... so I just love looking at different faces. Well yesterday I had a missed opportunity that I will probably never get back. I wish I had a camera with me at all times now. Any way there was a girl working out that was probably has one of the most beautiful faces I have seen in person. I know that beauty is relative, and I for one don't usually like what is considered typical beauty. I tend to like interesting faces and ethnic faces. I think she was either pacific islander or native american. I tend to think pacific islander, because of the hair.. long and wavy vs. straight. I wish I could have gotten some mug shots of her for my sculpting. Not that I am talented enough to do a portrait sculpt, but I love having referance pictures to sculpt from. She also was not plasitc, if you get my drift. As I was working out I could not belive how many women have been augmented. It is an epidemic LOL.

Nothing wrong with being a people watcher! I think it's silly not to admire God's creations, and the human body is one of them! Hopefully you'll get to see her again. You should approach her and tell her your thoughts, I bet she'll be so flattered, who wouldn't be?

I hear you on the epidemic, it's ridiculous. Argentina is one of the worst countries for that. I must say though, growing up I always thought I'd end up doing it... it really affects your self esteem to be smaller than everyone around! Especially when you wear a running bra! :)

Good luck getting the diet under control, you can do it!

I bet she was Filipino. Filipinoes are beautiful. At least the males are.
