Erin over at Gluten Free with a Purpose did a cool post on 7 things about her & asked if anyone wanted to participate & to their own. I think this is cool, so here is my “7 Things”.
First, a picture of me.
Now, onto my stuff. Things you may not know about me.
1. I was a gymnast growing up. I started gymnastics at 5 and continued in it until I was 14 or so. I wanted to be just like Nadia & Mary Lou Retton. Obviously, that didn’t happen. 
2. I was born in Newport, Rhode Island. My Dad was in the Navy, so that is where we lived the 1st 2 years of my life.
3. My 2nd toe is longer than my big toe. This was all fine & good until I started running and now seems to be causing some issues. Stupid feet!
4. I love to read. We are on vacation right now & I brought no less than 10 books. Aaron laughed at me. I am already done with one & half way through the 2nd book and we have only been here 3.5 days. Plus, I like choices.
5. I never used to be a morning person, but am now. I am up at 4:25 AM to hit the gym by 5 AM on weekdays. What a difference from 10 – 15 years ago!
6. I took violin lessons as a child. When in middle school, I was 2nd chair in the orchestra/band.
7. I never sang in front of people (well, except when forced in church choir as a child) until about 6 or 7 years ago. Now I won’t stop! LOL! And, I really can’t sing!
Well, there you have it. 7 things that you didn’t know about me before and may not care that you know now! LOL!
As Erin said, I am not going to tag anyone, but I would love it if you would participate & then let me know so I can check out your 7 things.

My son and me, November 2000. This is before we were gluten-free/diagnosed Celiac.
Go BUCKS!!!
I still can’t get over our similarities ….I think we were destined to be blogger friends
I laughed at your #3, as I have the opposite situation….my big toe is MUCH taller than the rest of my piggies. Stupid feet is right.
We can wallow in our foot miseries together!
LOL!
Hey – I did know all that stuff about you – except I forgot about church choir. What our parents do to us!
LOL Mom!! I think they made me sing solo, or with one other person. I was horrified!!
Love your sweatshirt! Go bucks!!
Cute list – I LOVE learning about other bloggers!
Thanks Allison!
I am from Rhode Island!!!!
I saw your comment on my blog about training and your injured foot. Right before I started training for my first half last week I sprained my ankle! It sucked, but I just took two weeks off and did pretty much nothing. You have to take the time to get better. Good news is you have a ton of time to do it!
Yeah, as hard as it has been, I haven’t really run since I saw the dr a week ago. I did 4.5 miles on Sunday and nothing run wise since. Only elliptical. Stinks, but I know it is better in the long run.
Love reading your blog!
I, too, am scarred from the church choir experience, Kim!
Yeah, one word sums it up…horrifying!
