http://malsgonegreen.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Sunday, September 26, 2010. Food, Football, and Frolicking Giraffes. I had a fantastic start to the weekend - I got a library card!

Well, only two books at a time until the hold is lifted off my account after a standard waiting period of 4 weeks, but then, I'll really be a real Hawaii resident because I can rent an UNLIMITED number of books. I know, I know, it's almost too much excitement for 10:00am on a Friday. The Wheels on the Bus.

http://malsgonegreen.blogspot.com/2011/02/valentines-day-biathlon.html
Monday, February 14, 2011. So, instead of taking a lover this year for Valentine's Day, I decided to love myself. Yesterday, I proudly finished my rookie run/swim. And I totally didn't finish in last place. And the lifeguards on surfboards and jetskis didn't have to save me (Bonus! Still having energy to run up the beach at the end and cross the finish line without passing out! So, what's next for me, you ask? The 10K Ford Island Bridge Run, April 2.
