Racing myself into shape. That was an awesomely stacked local race! Offer a little bit of prize money and all the fast locals come out to play! 

Beforehand I had no idea what time I could run so I tried not to overanalyze it and just raced. Ended up running most of the race 3rd place behind Cynthia Fowler and Marianne Blackburn, and finished that way too.

It was a serious lung burner on a challenging course. I need a nap. Guess I should probably train a little more before trying that again. 

Just a couple of days ago, I found out the race director for Huntsville Half will give me an elite entry, so why not? Cynthia is doing Huntsville Half too, so I'm signed up for another pain train in just a few weeks! Cant say I'm looking forward to that one quite yet. I think I'll call Devra to whoop my butt into long-run shape.

Nan - it was nice to talk to you after the race. Congratulations on the solid run! Naps are good - key to success in a lot of things. I was talking to a senior missionary one day and he said something I consider to be extremely profound - a day without a nap is a wasted day.

Do you have the contact info for the Huntsville race director? I've sent an email to the general address but never heard back.

We were thinking this race would be a good chance for Benjamin to earn his driver's license (sub-1:10 half).
