The hot pink mohawk and other stuff!

Greetings everyone,

Sorry that my postings have been within a week apart from each other, and yet again this time....I got an upper respiratory tract infection and my breathing has been off and on like usual. However, I did happen to keep on running when my breathing was a bit strong and made it through. Weekly average so far is now 22.3 miles. Not bad for a person who was just ill.

On a different subject, I have done it, the mohawk is now dyed hot pink and I have to thank the lovely ladies at Hair We Are here in Washburn, ND. They were awesome on how quick they were to make my mohawk was just that perfect pink color to help motivate for breast cancer. And so far, there have been many feedback on the color and such. Some were very awesome because they are my friends and some who live here in Washburn. And some have been....quite interesting because they don't think that men should have a pink mohawk and I just chuckle because I told them that if you are a man, you are comfortable with everything, color or the person. I do enjoy it because it is out of my ordinary. I am not the flashiest runner, I don't wear all that bright clothing or shoes. But now, I see a complete change because I am now sporting the hot pink mohawk, the pink or tye dye socks and bright colors of clothing and I have to say, I like being goofy to help catch the attention to tell them why I am wearing crazy stuff, to help boost information on the charities I am running for. Fun times, I tell you what.

Other than having a hot pink mohawk and feeling quite awesome, I am doing awesome. Despite anything that kept me down for a bit, I am doing quite alright.

And there it is, in all it's glory....the hot pink mohawk. What a lot of people were awaiting and it is here. And I am very proud of it too.

Do not let anyone tell you that you can't do this or anything because it's you. Even if they think it is negative or crazy, in other people's eyes, it's pretty awesome to them.
