treadmills and crushes

y'all, i have a secret - until yesterday, i was so SCARED of running on the treadmill. i would usually use it for walking and put it at like a 2.5 speed. well, yesterday, i conquered my fear! it was way too cold to run our 3 miles outside, so hb & i decided to go to the gym. unfortunately, the machines were pretty much taken, so i got on an elliptical and kept an eye out for a treadmill. after 7 minutes, one opened up, and i bumped it up to 4.5...y'all i was running on the treadmill!! i followed our normal, run 3 minutes, and walk 1 minute routine, and i got through 3 miles in 46 minutes!!! it sounds terrible, but i was able to get closer to a 15 minute pace more than ever. i'm hoping that the pace will only lower from here!


another secret - i have a crush. i've had a crush on this person for the longest time. it's gail simmons for top chef. i have told hb that i am "gay for gail" so many times, so you can imagine my sadness to know that she got married! so now, i'm lookin' for a new girl crush! who is your crush? i am taking all suggestions :)
here is a picture of gail in case y'all don't know what she looks like. isn't she so cute?!!!
