Just for Sam, here is another butt picture. I can't tell you how many of these I have (I think since it says Thunder on my butt, everyone feels the need to take a picture of it)- and I hate posting them. But, a little butt picture adds to the humor of the day, and Sam made fun of her butt too. So, here is a not-so-great angle shot.
Sam vs Damie
Sam runs really fast. She just ran a 1:25 in a half IM. Unreal. See Sam go! And, while you are checking out the pictures, pay special attention to the facial detail. It explains everything.
Damie tries to run fast like Sam. Oh, there is a camera! I need to smile and wave!
Sam doesn't miss a beat while passing people. Hitting the splits on the watch, that takes a special grimace too. 
Oh look, there is Damie running a marathon with Frances. Social hour! Hello camera!
Now, Sam doesn't know I have this picture of her. This is the Valentine's Day 10k of this year. We were in the same race. Sam won the race....and made her special face. 
I was somewhere behind her, giving a peace sign to the world. 
Really, the joke is on me, though. My goal is to run as hard as Sam-to make faces because I am working so hard, to not notice the camera because I am working so hard, to not move a finger to wave because I am pumping my arms as hard as I can. Sam is my inspiration! Hee hee!

Great pictures, and very funny. And, of course, nice butt! :-)
haha. that's awesome. I dunno what it is, but I swear when I race I think really really hard about not making "the face" but it never works. Oh gosh...I'll write about today later, but it was a definite mental test and I'm pretty sure I was probably making the face. Bree kept telling me to smile. lol. check back tonight (keep in mind that I'm on the west coast so maybe check in the morning instead), but I'm in a hurry right now. Thanks for dedicating a post to me though! Happy training and keep up the good work! you're awesome!
damie, is sam from nashville? did she run for USN in high school?
yup! that's me!
Hilarious... yes, playing the part can improve performance ;) Get your GAME FACE on girl! Then, smile and make friends after the race.
sam, you may not remember me...but i remember your racing face! ha! i used to be the assistant coach at father ryan when you were a junior and senior (i think) in high school. andrea and laura were my girls that TRIED to keep up with you. what moved you to memphis?
That's hilarious. Ok, no more trying to smile for the cameras for me, although people often mistake my grimace for a smile. I guess that works... Great race, Sam!
ha ha ha, I might nearly wet my pants laughing at this! Sam is truly an amazing chica and she REALLY does run with that face! I look more like your photos, smiles... we have been teasing her that she looks like she is trying to get a poo out with her faces! ha ha, wish you were here with us!
Those are great photo's...I will make sure I am smiling for the camera's from now on...I don't want a poo looking pic to show up on your blog :) funny post!!!
I know...I am so glad Sam has a sense of humor. I made sure to get permission before I posted these. I didn't want anyone to think I was a meanie! At least she is flying in her pictures. I look like I am going slower than a speed walker!
