6 x 18

I ran six miles on Saturday morning - I still can't believe it.  To make a long story short, I had to take about a week off from running and had previously made it only to 3.5 miles in my half marathon training.  I needed to catch up and I actually felt better after a week off, so I decided to just go for the six after I'd had a few good short runs earlier this week.  And I did it - I ran six miles and I still can't believe it.  Oh wait, I already said that.  Anyway, I'd like to thank these 18 songs for helping me do it:

1.  I Want You Back, Jackson 5
2. Sealion Remix, Feist
3.  Brian Wilson, Barenaked Ladies
4. In Your Eyes, Peter Gabriel
5. I Feel it All, Feist
6. The Remedy, Jason Mraz
7. Amsterdam, Guster
8. Closer to Fine, Indigo Girls
9. Galileo, Indigo Girls
10. Check Yes Juliet, We the Kings
11. Satellite, Guster
12. Breakthrough, Hope 7
13. I Did It, Dave Matthews Band
14. Past in Present, Feist
15. Clocks, Coldplay
16. Hey Ya, Outkast
17. Mr. Blue Sky, Electric Light Orchestra
18. The Sweet Escape, Gwen Stefani

Special thanks goes to song #7 for being the perfect song to accompany my runner's high, which hit just as it started.  I think I just might make it to the half marathon!

Jess! I'm so happy for you. It's been a long time since I've run 6 miles. I SO need to get back into it. Did that cd I gave you work or was it too scratched. If is does work, sorry for the randomness of it!
