First!

Hello, a little about me I guess. I am a college student somewhere in the south. I am engaged to a man I love, and I like animals. I am starting this blog to chronicle my life as an athlete and a student. Most of the personal stuff will be left out. Perhaps you are, however, curious as to why my name is Arvicolinae Lemmini. That is, for those who are unaware, the latin name for our little friend the lemming. This poor little guy and I have a considerable amount in common. We both take off running, and sometimes we misjudge our obstacles and end up drowing in a frigid lake in Norway. I ran 5.5 miles today, which is a short day for me. That made it up to mile 35.5 for this week. My goal is 60, so hopefully I get there! 15 miles tomorrow providing that bio lab doesn't go over. I really enjoy classes and labs, but I enjoy running more, and I can sit in the science center in the dark. Running in Urbania at night is a good way to get murdered. And being murdered hasn't been cool since the 90's. I am currently enjoying, or rather currently am contented AFTER enjoying a nice mug of peppermint tea.
That is all for now.
