I started cracking up when I read about the mexican. I love mexican food and will eat it tonite despite the fact that I have a 20 miler tomorrow morn with hills. I just know I'm going to pay.<BR/>Good job knocking down those negative thoughts. That is what we runners have to do.<BR/>BillBill Carterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17303668807091595615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3899266033543468974.post-39156933102642098812007-09-22T00:07:00.000-05:002007-09-22T00:07:00.000-05:00Great mental work!!
