If you grew up in the 80's, you most likely were on a first name basis with the Huxtables. Cliff, Claire, Sondra, Denise, Theo, Vanessa, and Rudy.
They were less dysfunctional than your family, and they ended every episode on a good note, like a good TV family should. Complete with incredible sweaters, amazing grandparents, and a sassy youngest child, how could you not like the Cosby Show?
There was one episode that I think of whenever I hear the word challenge!
In this episode, Cliff takes on a seasoned tap dancer in a "dance off"! And the only word that the tap dancer, Sandman Simms, says is...CHALLANGE after he finishes his dance moves! Yes I spelled that wrong, but if you watched the episode, you know I'm right.
If you read my last post, you know I had a little wager with my Aunt Sonya over the Packers v Cowboys game. Well, the sun shined down on the Packers and their backup QB so I came out on top of that bet. The bet was that the loser would run 20 miles this week.
I had then, and still have no doubts that my Aunt Sonya would knock that out by the weekend.
...myself, however, would've probably failed miserably.
Anyway, not to be outdone, I thought I would at least try to keep pace and CHALLANGE myself to see if I could have done the 20 miles myself had I lost. Get it? How I CHALLANGED myself there...OK, yeah, so that wasn't that funny, never mind.
In order to do 20 miles in a week, one must do large chunks of it when one has the chance.
Wednesday was the only day this week that there wasn't a game or practice.
First 3 miles was a sub 10 minute pace.
4.99 miles (we'll call it 5), 51:54. Still not at 20 miles...
Later
