Brief Update

I've been running as much as one can while dealing with the nasty cough/cold/cough/choke/etc thing that I've had for the past few weeks.

Somehow I was coerced into registering for Rocky Raccoon this coming weekend. Pete, Tiffany, and I will be making our attempt to complete a 50 miler on Saturday.

None of us are really ready for this, but we plan to have fun, walk when needed, and learn a lot about what we will do the next time we plan to run 50.

I have a list of a prayer intentions for each mile that I run. My only prayer for myself is that I can finish the race so that each prayer petition has a chance to be offered.

We'll be pulling for you. See you at the park on Saturday. The Seven Hills Running Club will be operating the aid station at the lodge.

Good luck this weekend; I'll be starting my 1/2 in Maui Saturday at noon Houston time I believe.

50 miles. How is that even possible?

This year, I chose to ride 50 miles (this past Sunday) instead of run (and walk). :)

I should be out there at some point in time. My plans for the weekend changed today.

Good luck Karen! I have no doubt that you will do great.

I've had the same idea planted in my head in case I EVER run a marathon. Good luck!
