When Mike got home from work tonight, I grabbed two spatula's and said:
"Take a photo of me running around the deck with my cellphone."
Mike: Why are you holding your cellphone?
Me: No, not of me with the cellphone, me running with spatulas. Take the photo using my cellphone.
Mike: O-kay.....why?
Me: It's for a virtual run, I did it this morning on the treadmill, and I couldn't take a photo of myself running with spatulas.
Mike: huh?
Me: It's a blog thing.
Mike: Oh. Okay. Smile.
I love virtual races, it's fun to push myself to race a few miles, when I might have just "run."
Ali, from Running With Spatula's cracks me up, and she ran a relay last weekend holding two spatula's!!! I was going to run outside today, but when I woke up it was raining, and I haven't been on the treadmill for a while, so down to the basement I went.
And ran. With spatula's on the treadmill. And I had to take crappy looking pictures with my cellphone because I still haven't gotten an new battery charger for the camera.
But it was a great run. My time:
My 10k evidence:
I was pretty happy with that.
Thanks Ali!!!

Nice job on your run! I use the self timer on my camera and I even found out my phone camera has a timer on it too, that way my husband doesn't have to know about most of the crazy photos I take ;)
Haha, I love that! Allan does the same thing with me. Funny, how I use the blog as a reason for a long of crazy pictures!
I love blog pictures, but haven't yet fully recruited my dear husband to take part. My 8 year old does a pretty good job (though the angle is less than flattering). I love virtual runs!
Your conversation with your husband sounds like so many I've had with mine! Oh, they are so good to put up with us! ;)
Great job on the run!!
GREAT run! I got your pic while I was at work - It made me laugh :) I love it.....I can't believe you ran with spatulas on the treadmill!!!!!! amazing :D
thanks for participating - great time!
So funny! But cute pic, and great time...
I can only imagine what your husband was thinking upon your photo request . . . hilarious!
GREAT RUN!!!! Your Ms. Speedy McSpeedster!
Nice! Virtual races are great. I think a lot of us use that "it's a blog thing" line sometimes. :)
It's a blog thing. Hilarious.
Great pic and .... great husband!
