6.7

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!!!
