I have a friend who is in training for a triathlon. She has a training coach who has her doing 4-hour bike rides and 3-hour runs, stuff like that. I was talking to her the other day and saying how much I admire her for being able to do that, and she said "well, you're looking so athletic these days that I think that someday you should join me on one of my runs."

It felt really good. I've been carrying that complement with me for days. I keep telling myself that this is the reason for my stall -- that I'm getting so darn muscular.

There is NO way that I could run for 3 hours. It would kill me. But it was nice to hear just the same.
