What have you done today to make you feel proud?

Miranda is one of my all-time favorite television programs. Her best friend, Stevie, like to motivate herself and others by holding up an image of M People's Heather Small on a stick and singing "What have you done today to make you feel proud?" It makes me laugh every time.

So what have I done today to make me feel proud? Well, I went to boot camp at Sync Fitness -- which was good enough to make me sweaty, but I didn't push myself hard enough. And I didn't have fun. So I"m proud to report that I have also signed up for Vast Fitness starting next week. So excited!!!

Also we decided to make the final run of the 40@40 project an official race, rather than a run that ends at the pub. So next weekend we're going to go up north to the Birch Bay Half Marathon. Looks like a pretty course -- other than the big hill up and down in the middle... -- and it has a nice almost-symmetry about it.

See, Birch Bay is where we (and everyone else) took a wrong turn during the 2008 Birch Bay International Road Race and turned a 15K into an 18.5K... only a mile and half short of inadvertently running our first half marathon! So having this be the end to 40@40, well, that just makes perfect sense.

So tell me, what have you done today to make you feel proud?
