Top 10 Valentines Day Blog...back by popular demand

I am reposting my V-day post from last year. Last year I spent a freezing cold evening on the hills of Newton with my best friend from running, Lauren. This year? I had the worst training run in history and am about to head out with my girlfriends. So - in the spirit of this adorably nauseating Hallmark Holiday - here they are..

Here are the Top 10 Reasons why I think the Newton Hills will be the Best Valentine Date yet:

10) You don't need to use protection to "do the Thursday."

9) The hills may be considered Heartbreakers, but you know this going into it. Therefore, they could never break your heart more than those guys who end it out of the blue with a variation of "He's Just Not That Into You."

8) They won't get upset no matter how quickly you finish.

7) They never talk back.

6) You are allowed to spit along the way, and the Hills won't freak out at you.

5) They love going up and they love going down.

4) No matter how many times you pound away at them, the Hills will never beat you back.

3) Although you might get tired, they never will.

2) They can't exaggerate. You know EXACTLY how big they are.

And the #1 Reason Why this will be the best Valentine yet:

1) The hills already got the approval of my Jewish Grandmothers. Since they are in Newton and Brookline, you can just assume that my Valentine is a member of the tribe.
