I'm supposed to tell you six random things about myself. As this award is spreading through Blogland, some folks have been putting together their six random things based on a theme. So here it goes, six random things from my weekend.1. I had to make one of those expensive Target runs this weekend. Seems like it always happens: I run out of a bunch of stuff (body wash, shampoo, toothpaste, face wash, moisturizer, etc.) all at the same time, leading to an expensive Target run. This was one of those runs. On the plus side, I may have splurged and come home with some Reese's Peanut Butter eggs.
2. I love coupons and grocery store sales. I had to get some cereal for breakfast. I had a coupon for $1 off two boxes of Frosted Mini-Wheats plus some Personal Perks grocery store reward. What that means? I got a free box of cereal!
3. If you think about seasons in terms of cooking, spring has officially sprung. I went to my parents' house for dinner Sunday (well, and to hijack their TV to watch the Badger game) and we had brats on the grill. First time since last fall!
4. I really wanted to finish reading "Born to Run: A Hidden Tribe, Superathletes, and the Greatest Race the World Has Never Seen" by Christopher McDougall this weekend. So close. But not done yet. Really interesting book by the way. While it's a great book, I don't think I'll be tossing my shoes in favor of barefoot running anytime soon.
5. I'm going through Olympic withdrawal. Good thing March Madness starts this week with conference tournaments leading up to Selection Sunday!
6. I feel a little guilty about skipping my long run this weekend. I've even tried rationalizing that the three short runs I did do Saturday and Sunday add up to the mileage I was supposed to do, but that isn't even helping.
There you go. Six random things I did or thoughts that ran through my head this weekend. Now it's time for me to pass it along...
Teacherwoman at Dare to Tri, Libby at From 0 to Runner, Suzy at Running on my Time, MCM Mama, Mel at Tall Mom on the Run and and Anne Marie, you guys are it!

Fun list!
I'm with you on the Olympics withdrawal... but at least I can catch up on my usual shows. :)
Thanks for the tag! You're a doll!
I too despise those expensive target runs... why is it that we run out of all those "necessities" (and I am encluding the peanut butter eggs as well) at the same time?!
CAN'T WAIT FOR MARCH MADNESS TO BEGIN... it will be interesting to see what the number 1 seeds will be!
Great list! I really miss Target from my days of living in the States. So many great things there, all under one roof!
Yay for new shoes and congratulations on your race as well by the way! :)
Hi there!
Thanks for tagging me! I actually already was tagged and wrote my list ~1 week ago.
And I sooo hear you on the expensive target runs! it's an oxymoron i tell ya!
THanks for the tag! I've done it once, but may pull it out again if I need something to write. ;o)
Yum, brats on the grill. One of the things i love most about Wisconsin!
Good list! I love reading random things about people. Also, thanks for the tag. I'm working on my list right now.
