I'll keep looking for my shoes though, they've got to be around here somewhere.
I've come across Deanna Adam's blog:
Wow. I've really enjoyed looking through it. She just finished doing the Great Divide tour. Wow again. I've seen this race (not really a race but can't think of another way to put it, maybe adventure?) somewhere before and thought that would be a fun thing to do. Possibly in outside magazine last year or something. She's the same age as me. Twenty. I can't imagine doing something like that now. All on my mind is school, sadly. Man I need to get my prioritys in line. Sometimes I think college can wait, as she puts it college will always be there. Well said.
Which reminds me, I ordered a charge spoon seat a couple weeks ago. The site says they are out of stock but should get restocked in mid july. Which is nowish! So anyday now it'll get shipped out and I'll be ready for a long ride without my ass getting beat up.
Marathon training is going well. I think i'm just about halfway. It's definetely easier than last year. I know I can run the distances this time. I'm pretty sure that I can beat my previous time on the last marathon. Geez all these races what's a poor college kid to do? I'm having trouble making money trying to enter these races! Wish I could somehow get a way to get in for free. If only there is a way, if anyone knows a way let me know : ) I'd be happy with a answer for that.
My last race was the liberty point 5k my goodness that was an awesome race. Let me start by saying it was only 5 bucks. I've never had a race at that cost. No shirt but i'm good with that. I'd be good with all races costing 5 bucks and not getting shirts. Not that I don't like shirts, but I don't think most of them are good looking sadly.
The race itself was nice. I brought my sister and brother along to run it as well. Lined up and it's off. I like to start in the back because then i have to keep slow to pass people, which helps me from starting off too fast. After I past mile marker 1 and 7 minutes I was off. Didn't check my watch again. Just pumped up the music and took off. Finishing in 19:42 a new PR! And under 20 minutes wow! I was pretty pumped.
Now... To find those shoes..
