I know I said I would have the race report written by Saturday, but everytime I start it, I remember something else I want to add, then some of those details aren't quite so clear. So I stop writing to make sure I get all most of the facts straight. I am most of the way done with the run, so it shouldn't take too much longer now. :)

I knew the weight loss was too good to be true. Anyway, I am just a few pounds off from where I would like to be. Plus the weight lifting has been fun and I am starting to see some results after just one week. Maybe I will get ripped and go into professional body building 

Running a 5K with Sheila and some coworkers tonight. A law enforcement run with a huge beer/ margarita/ chili dog garden afterwards. It's a good thing I met my weekly weight goal yesterday It was supposed to be "meet my goal and get one beer", but tonight might be an exception.

Yikes. What is wrong with me. I started off the day by working some overtime (trying to get some vacation time again) and I knew Sheila and the kids would be out and about, so I brought my bike with me. There is 100 miles of coastline, plus miles and miles of mountains that are great for riding. So, where do I ride? Yep. At the lake. The same 2.77 miles that I have riding for the last few months.

The first lap was cool. I had to stop and explain to people why I haven't been there lately. I guess some people were quite concerned that "the guy who is always here" wasn't here any more.  I didn't bring my sunglasses or water bottles, so after the first lap, I decided to just ride until I got thirsty. I ended up with some dust in my eye, so I went home

5K. I just missed sub 25 5 K by a little bit.
