I had lunch with KARA GOUCHER

by SkinnyRunner on October 28, 2011

023

A limo was involved, a small, intimate lunch, ‘I love you’s might have been exchanged… on my part.

  Rest assured I’m pretty sure she’s going to run away with me to Couples Swept Away Jamaica.

Full details to come in the morning.

RoseRunner October 28, 2011 at 6:38 pm

what. the. frick. My only emotion right now is pure jealousy and maybe a little bit of hate. Not only do you get $109834 in free running stuff every year, but you get to be friends with Kara!?!? I can’t handle the jealousy. There better be a really good explanation for this, like that she is your friends’ sister in law or you paid her in 5000 salmon.

Deep breath. Trying to be happy for you.

Sarah October 28, 2011 at 6:53 pm

So jealous! I saw her at the end of the Nike Women’s Marathon a couple of weeks ago~she walked right by me. She’s lucky…if I wasn’t a little out of it from just finishing the race, I might have accosted her. She’s awesome.

Meghan October 28, 2011 at 6:54 pm

Awesome! I can’t wait to read about it!

The other day while I was driving from work to the gym (about a 10 block drive), I saw Shalane Flanagan out for a run. I was starstruck.

Okay, that’s not anywhere close to having lunch with Kara Goucher, but it’s all I got!

HOLY CRAP!!!!!! That is soooooo awesome!!!!!

But clearly I can see that lunch was only for the most amazing and beautiful runners ever. . . ummm, I’m a little put out that I wasn’t on the invite list. I should have been the first to cross your mind!!!
