A lot of those negatives are positives as well -- like being stubborn shows you're determined (like the way both you and Em stuck to your pool running last year when injured - that really shows strength of character when it's so easy to give up). Bossiness = good leadership skills and obsessiveness = attention to detail.
I reckon most personality traits aren't positive or negative - just two sides to the same thing and it depends how you see them.
Btw is being a shopaholic meant to be a BAD thing????
This is the third time I have attempted to leave a message...bloody 'slowband' internet..
Thankfully I am a running coach only, tmrw run your 800m similar to the Region Final and sub 2:41 should be there! 3000m will see 5 laps of 100 sec per lap and then if anything is left in the tank you will go sub 12:30. The 400m will be survival and I suggest you just let that happen.
Sun, a very easy run walk for 60 min.
Mon - rest
Tue - VMC 800m, hopefully with a pacemaker if I or OM can organise.
As Kathryn said there are a lot of things on the negative list that are really positives. And I'm sure (from what I know of you, although this is limited), that that list of positives is a lot longer (that is, you've left a lot of things off).
They are not faults they are just all the things that make up the chick called jo that we know and love.
Have fun racing tomorrow, I know you will :-)
Yes, but on the plus side, your punctuation is beyond reproach.
Come on JoJo- you know that positive list is a little on the lean side- I can think of plenty more things to add. Hope today went well.
JoJo, are you sure your list is about you? You've got some of mine down there too! Mind you, I kind of like that I crack myself up at my own jokes, and I prefer to think of it as "helpfully pointing others in the right direction" rather than "bossiness".
It's been a while since I caught up on your blog. What a whirlwind! My head hurts. I'm sorry cookie monster got scratched. The boots are great. How did many valentines did you get? Did you get the PB you wanted?
