Today’s deskside vacation dream brought to you by the letters R-A-G-N-A-R. Can you guess where I’m (hopefully) going?

Guess what we’ll be doing TWO MONTHS from today, fellas!!!!
Between this, the year of workouts so far and a really fun Tumblr meetup last night, I am feeling super positive about 2012 right now. Don’t you bring me down today! etc.
I just remembered via conveniently timed reminder email that I signed up for the BAA 10K in Boston on the 26th. Anybody want to hang out? Michelleruns and Thereluctantrunner, you’re in for the 10K, right?
It appears that you can still sign up for this race if you want to get out of town. If you need a reference attesting that I am not a 53-year-old man recently appearing on TV with Chris Hansen I.R.L., I think someone around here will vouch for me…
To do this weekend: Run over the Potomac for the first time!
Detail from the course for the Cherry Blossom 5K this weekend in D.C. There’s also a 10-miler going on, in which runners run over the Potomac and then later onto an island in the Potomac. Oh, you fancy, huh.
