Well I ran today on my lunch break, I thought I could get in 6 miles, but the path had construction on it so the last little bit was blocked. I tried to make up the miles but didn't quite do it. It was a pretty nice run, legs got a bit heavy at the end.

Way to be flexable and get the miles in! Whoo hoo!!! Where do you work? Is there a shower or are you in the outer reaches of human existance? Or are you one of those lucky few who don't smell like a dead cow after running? ;)

Marion,

I work for Autoliv in Ogden, I'm lucky there is a shower at my facility, so I don't have to be smelly. But hey I have no sense of smell so even if I was stinky it wouldn't bother me LOL

Hey, that can be good and bad! Waht is Autoliv?

From Metcalf Running on Thu, Oct 30, 2008 at 16:53:50

Ya.. it has some good things.

Autoliv makes airbags, cushions, seatbelts. It's an automotive safety company. I'm the sectretary for the Frontal Design Engineers.

Cool job! :)

From Metcalf Running on Thu, Oct 30, 2008 at 17:06:09

I don't know if I would say it's cool, have you talked with many Engineers? Some are not really what you would call cool LOL. I'm very lucky though I work for some very talented and sometimes fun group, so I can't complain.

OOooooo, scary blog picture! My boys are going to love her!

Yes, engeneers are very funny, I loved to tease them in college. My sister in law/roomate is an electrical Engineer and my best friend in college is a mechanical Engineer. Being women, they are a bit different than the guys.
