First Friday Freebie

It's been a busy week for me, not a lot of time to blog or read them. But I'll catch up!

This is my first official Friday Freebie! Ok, this could be first and last but still. I wanted to share this wonderful free download that I found this week. Bebo is a networking website, like MySpace and Facebook, I think? Not sure, I've only logged into it once or twice but recently I started getting email advertisements from them. I opened one email I received earlier this week planning to unsubscribe and found this subject in the email: 15 Free Songs on iTunes. Yep, as soon as I read free and iTunes and I was all ears. So I clicked on the link in the email and I was asked to add iTunes as my friend on Bebo. Afterward, I got a download code for those songs. It was super easy and now I am 15 song richer on my iTunes. So there, that's my freebie for the day. Go here to download your own code and you can get your own regular free monthly music mix! I listened to most of it already and they're bands that I had never heard of but weren't too bad. Some of them were actually pretty good. I always like discovering new music so I was happy. Did I mention it's also free?

This past week has been a light running week. On Monday, I ran a 7 miler at a very easy 10:15 pace. Wednesday, I went to my first track workout with PacWest. Really enjoyed the track workouts. I don't get to do them very often so I just ate it up. Did couple of strides and then did four 400s at about 1:45 at each. Didn't want to over do it since I have the Nike Marathon this weekend. I also did my final "taper" 4 miler run very slowly this morning.

What do I expect this weekend? Lots of running. Lots of Nike Spirit. Hopefully chocolate on the course and cute SF fire fighters handing out the Tiffany medals. I don't have a goal since this is supposed to be long training run for the CIM but I hope to finish under 4 hour and 30 min! I am planning to go the expo today and get my iPod engraved like Audrey!

Good luck to Audrey and RoadBunner who are doing the half; and good luck to Maritza, Taunya and Tara who are also running the full in the Nike Women's Marathon on Sunday! Yay girls!! (Did I miss anyone?) See you lovely ladies at the starting line! And Aron, I'll be looking for your signs in the peanut gallery!

  3. Ooh - thanks for the tip! I love iTunes... I buy $15 cards at the grocery all the time. :)

    BTW - you can get other things engraved on your iPod. They had two other logo options or you can write two lines of your own text. Just an FYI. You could also do both but then you'd have to wait in line twice (yikes).

  10. Oh, we chose Kazakhstan because they take excellent care of their children and you are also able to adopt the children young (7 months and up). It was such an adventure.
