Dr ShoeMoney Launches Running My Ass Off
When my wife gets into something she doesn’t mess around. After I beat her in our family challenge on the 25th of april she became supercharged and started getting into running… and long distance running at that.
She started a blog Running My Ass Off where she is putting up posts as she progresses. She also takes a few shots at dillsmack after beating him in a 20 mile challenge.
If you are a runner please challenge her through the nike+ system. It will make her day.
So people wonder where I get my drive from… Well my wife is a anesthesiologist. She works at least 60 hours a week. Yet she runs for 7 miles at a time and also is a mother to our daughter AND keeps pretty much everything operational in the house.
So ya when I talk about surrounding yourself with success…

Sounds like you have a great wife.
Ive never heard of Nike+ but it sounds like a really cool system. Im impressed that they are getting into this type of thing

Hahaha. That’s awesome. And yeah, that Nike+ system sounds pretty cool.

Like Travel Notebook, I haven’t heard about the Nike+ system but seems helpful–but again, I’m probably the farthest from being a runner as you could imagine.
On the other hand, I’ll challenge anyone to a swim in the pool!

7 miles at a time? Damn… I die after one mile…
[Reply]
she sounds unreal… how did you beat her in the last challenge?
[Reply]
I’ve been running for a few years now, but for some reason I never really knew how many miles I was doing at a time. Nike+ sounds very interesting indeed.
[Reply]
Hats off to Mrs Shoe! Among her long list of responsibilities, being a mother is probably the most commendable.
[Reply]
well it was run 1 mile and make 50 baskets. She beat me in the mile by about a lap and 1/2 but I made it up in the basketball portion and won by only 3 baskets. slim margin

Sounds like a great system. Might actually encourage me to get out and run more.

For all those interestd in the Nike Plus system, I have a write up about it on my blog: http://www.runningmyassoff.com
[Reply]
And she’s in great shape - the nike+ info is showing she’s turning ~7 min miles. Read that as hauling ass.
[Reply]
yes, I agree. Really seems that running gives the ladies more energy :-9

1 month ago I made a promise to run every day until 31th of December of this year.
After 2 weeks sticking to it I got a flu for running on a windy and rainy day…
Soon I will get back on track though.
[Reply]
Nice system but Apple-only. That’s bad.
[Reply]
It’s very difficult to read that blog. The background is so dark.
[Reply]
7 miles … wow it’s something . I hope i will end up running so much one day
[Reply]
7 miles is quite a long distance , hope i’ll make it and run that much one day . Besides that , your wife must have an extra pack of energy is she works 60 hours per week and still finds time to run .
[Reply]
I like the look and feel of that site. I don’t like running. I was in the Army and ran all the time. Now I hate running.
[Reply]
Sweet, I don’t run too much anymore, but I’ll check this out!
[Reply]
Hands down - she’s impressive! I will be following her on the blog but gotta tell you it will take me a couple years of training before I will even see a run for a full mile without walking!
Cool tool Nike put out…
[Reply]
SO very true. Nice blog, I wish her well on it -
[Reply]
My wife is also running atleast once a week after work. And than comes home usualy full of energy.
[Reply]
Shes a busy girl. I guess she likes to work for fun and stay busy?
[Reply]
My hat is off to your wife, though I wouldn’t run even if I was being chased. That’s why we have tazers.
Keeping both body and mind active when you have a child is paramount.
[Reply]
Well, I would rather jump from a building instead of doing half the things she does in a week.. Whew!
[Reply]
>>well it was run 1 mile and make 50 baskets
next time it needs to be make 50 baskets and THEN run one mile. I bet that there would be a big difference in the times if you switched it around a bit.
[Reply]
that’s a cool site, i think i need to sign up…. I could lose a few pounds myself…OK more like 20..25..well whos counting!
[Reply]
7 miles at a time. Hardcore.
