Good Race, Crummy Weekend

So here's how it happened. I left A&M at 2:30pm, got home in Dallas at 5:30pm on Friday. On Saturday I woke up at 7am and drove to Uuniv. of Texas at Tyler for Regional Relay for Life training. The training was as fun as it could be for being...well, Relay training. I left there at 4pm and got home at 5:30pm again. I then woke up at 5:15am, and drove over to White Rock Lake for my DRC Half Marathon (here's the report). I finished a little under 2hrs, but with an 8am start, the heat didn't make things any easier. I went home, showered, packed up and headed back to A&M. I got back to the apartment, changed into "business casual" and headed to campus for a Relay meeting until about 8:30pm and now I'm at my student worker job from 9-12. WHERE DID MY WEEKEND GO!

At the Relay meeting, my other Publicity Director Brandy was really worried something was wrong with me. Apparently, I looked really tired/upset. Speaking of which, Publicity stuff for our first Team Informational is under way and it seems to be going really good so far. The Informational is Thursday, so I'm going to be busy until then. I'll be so relieved when it's done!


As far as training goes, I think I'm going to keep the running down to just 2-5mi runs on Tuesday and Thursday, since I'm doing 22mi on Saturday. I miss the marathon training days when I could stop my long runs at 20mi. I'm also trying to get my parents and brother to sign up for the Dallas YMCA Turkey Trot. I want to go traditional this year with an indian costume, unlike the super hero costume I wore last year.

Congrats on the half and good luck with the 22 miler. Why run 20 when you can run 22?
