On today's adventure ... we almost got hit by a car!! Car stopped at stop sign, man in car has plenty of time to see us (and note sister's neon zig zag shirt which was highly visible!), man waited until we reached the FAR side of his vehicle to pull away from stop sign. If I hadn't sped up to catch up with my sister I would be hurting right now! Not sure if we're angry at the man or if we feel sorry for him - he must have had a heart attack when he FINALLY saw us!!

Feeling much more comfortable with the 3 minute run. Still kicks my ass ... but I don't want to lay down and die afterward. Which is good. Cause that's not cute.
