What's In A Name?

So I called this blog "As The Ponytail Bounces".  You might be wondering why...well I have a lot of hair...A LOT OF HAIR!  It's thick, there's a ton of it and I break every other ponytail holder I try to tie my hair back with.  When I run, my hair bounces. 

I never realized exactly how much it bounces until my husband took some photos of me during the running group's track workout one day.  My hair was crazy!  I'm the one in the dark pink shirt in case the ponytail didn't give it away!

Colleen always used to tell me that in a race she would just look for my ponytail up ahead of her (that's her in the white tank top..Barry is in front, Katherine is next to me).  I couldn't understand how she could always pick me out...until I saw the photos of my crazy hair bouncing around like that. 

So I guess a crazy bouncing ponytail is kind of my trademark.  For some races I have braided my hair to try to keep it from being so out of control, but people say they have a hard time finding me.  So I suppose I will keep the ponytail and let it bounce as it may!

Tomorrow the running group is meeting at 7:30 am and the goal is to run 6 miles.  Considering I am way behind on my mileage, this will probably be a big challenge for me!  Run recap tomorrow!
