MARATHON #6 : richmond 2010

my first marathon was Richmond 2001. even i can barely believe that. nine years ago? already? i didn't set out to be a regular, but here I am, nine years and five marathons later, still in love with the game. i've learned from my experiences out there, and i'm getting better every year. my first thon took me 5 hours, if i remember correctly. tomorrow morning, i'll be out there with my CAN OF WHOOP-ASS and trying for four.

the boss

okay, bring back the eighties already! Melts my butter every time.

project runway

this was my first season watching project runway. I loved it! makes me want to check out work of art (though it will be painful - i'm kinda over crit crit crit). Season 8 rocked, and these two were my favs. Gretchen, too - but Mondo nailed it for me. He'll have a line at Target any day now.
