Today’s Run: 7.10 miles
6.7 That is all I am. 6.7 lousy points. Out of 10.
I have lost a bazzilion and a half pounds over the past three years. I have run three half marathons and one full marathon. And all I get is a lousy 6.7!?! Harsh.
What happened is today I went to the gas station. We had ice cream in the freezer and I thought I would surprise my husband with a bottle of root beer (he loves root beer floats). As I was walking into the gas station, there was a group of men giving women their numerical value as they walked in.
I got a 6.7.
Model material I am not but I think I deserve more than that.
Maybe I have an inflated opinion of myself. I do not know. It just seems a little…low.
Low in the sense that grown men are still degrading women by attaching a numerical value to their appearance and low in that I think I deserve a higher number than that!
Do guys ever grow up?
So, I am home now, licking my wounds. I am NOT eating, just in case you want to know. No emotional eating today. I am too bummed for that.
On a happier note, I had a positively terrific run this morning! YAY for that. I was all bundled up against the 21 F temps and NE wind. It made me pick ’em up and put ’em down pretty quick. Let us hear it for cooler running weather!!!
