<--is baaaack!
<--is trying to get warm
<--will repost race wrap-up that <--posted in cheetah thread:

i just got back a bit ago and haven't read anything but wanted to post about the race. when we got to the start, it wasn't raining so we were feeling pretty thankful. then, just as they were ready to start us, it started to rain. i felt good and when they called the 1 mile split i was 8:34. then, i ran 9's until the rain started to get really bad (and of course the wind had to be going AGAINST us!). it was pouring and the wind was blowing so hard i actually blew into someone!!! my clothes were so heavy!!! i was wearing a pretty heavy long sleeve running shirt and winter running pants. not to mention that my feet were sloshing around in my shoes!!! i got to 9 and saw i was at about 91 minutes and knew i wasn't going to beat my 2:05 PR, so i just ran and enjoyed it. i even walked for almost a mile because i was a little tired and i felt like it! it was nice not to have the time pressure because i already knew i wasn't going to PR. i was soaking wet when i finished but felt great.

DF met me at the 5 mile mark and walked with me for a second. it was a nice boost to see him. of course, he was at the end as well.

get this...the friend i ran with who had NEVER run a half or run anything more than a 5K before she started training for this...she ran it in 1:53!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! that's AMAZING! i don't think i could ever do that. i just want to break 2 hours (even if it's 1:59).

my official race time isn't up, but according to my watch i finished in 2:10. i don't know what my chip time is. i'm sure the results will be up later.

<--is going to go cuddle with DF and try to get warm
<--will try to bbiab and read ^^^ and post more
<--just wanted youse all to know those butt pats really helped!
 
<--wishes Lorie luck on her race today
<--admires her moxy and hopes she kicks a$$
<--reminds Robin pee=job security
<--hopes no one says at the Turkey Day table "pass the pees"
<--had to read up Liann's leg issue to but send her healing vibes in the meantime
<--knows the wiener dog well wishers will speed her recovery
<--waves to Phyllis and hopes she can squeeze a workout in the LO
<--waves to Beth and wonder if she got a spot of snow today
<--waves to Amelia
<--reminds Shelley to drive safe after work and wishes she could have the day off since she has many American friends who are thankful for her
<--also joins in the high fiving of Catherine who is obviously able to "bring it on"
<--made some space in a house of fifteen to do KPC sans abs
<--is scheduled to feast this afternoon
