A New Superhero

Superheroes are created by some freak accident (Spiderman), traumatic life event (Batman), or experiment (Wolverine). And while these characters make for great entertainment, I'm pretty sure I became one of them today. 

Today's run was pushed back to Sunday by crappy weather and an ill-placed vet visit on my schedule. Throw in a pre-run sleepover at my grandparent's house, a night of storms, a mild head cold, and a very early wake up call, I was not in the best shape to get out there this morning. After having a great 20-miler last week, I was scared that I would have a bad run today. 

Maybe it was the change of scenery, maybe it was the beautiful blue sky, or maybe it was the buzzing power lines overhead.

3 hours of running under these bad boys probably gave me a superpower! I'm not sure what my superpower is or superhero name would be. According to my google search (first hit), your superhero name is a combo of the color shirt you are wearing and the object to your right. That makes me the Black Cell Phone! Not very impressive, and frankly depressing! 

Hit #2 is much better! You type in your name and pick your gender (boy or girl, apparently adults don't play the superhero game) and viola, your superhero persona is produced. I am now the Wonder Sword! Much more imposing! Plus, my superpower is technology, weakness is garlic, my weapon is the robotic shield, and my mode of transportation is a pegasus! I do love garlic, and my husband is forever making fun of my love of unicorns (for the record: a pegasus is a winged white horse, not a horned white horse, but he doesn't know the difference)!
