Okay, you can stop sending me texts and emails asking me what I'm doing now that the semester is over. Well, at least one of you was nice enough to do that. As you know, I was planning on doing a 50K race tomorrow but I'm going to bow out. There, I said it. Chastise me. Sue me. Lest you feel like I'm whimping out, yesterday and today we've gotten both snow and ice and I don't exactly relish the thought of running 32 miles on the equivalent of an ice skating rink.
Rest assured, I am as disappointed as you are. What to do with all that pent up energy? How about doing 10 miles on the treadmill at the Y instead?
Please tell me I'm not the only old dodger who got to the gym today. It's always fun when the holidays are sprinkled with surprises both weather-wise and activity-wise. I'm now trying to figure out when my next race will be. I am still very, very much on the fence about doing the St. George (Utah) marathon again next year. After all, this is where I got my marathon PR. We shall see!
