A few more things

A few more comments about the run on Sunday, mostly because I have a few photos to share.

I had convinced a friend to do this event with me. She's a new runner and this was her second "5K" ever. She did great and was in good spirits despite the chaos. I believe this was her farthest distance ever. She ran the whole way and had fun. I think she's hooked. Woot!


Also, I had chosen this particular event because it was for Deaf and Hard of Hearing awareness, something that is near and dear to a friend of mine. She was volunteering at the event and picked up my AG award.

Okay, enough about that. Today is running group day. I can't adaquately express how giddy I am to be back on my feet.

It's also the last day of the month. Yikes. Tomorrow I'll calculate my September totals. It's not going to be a pretty sight.
