It's 39 degrees and pouring rain - I'm really not excited about this, but my son and nephew are really pumped - my wife and I... not so much. Good luck on the race! The weather is crap out there right now and I am at work. Hoping to get out of here around 1 and head out for a 12 mile run by 2, don't care what the weather is like! Well, it was cold and wet and to top it off, I feel like I'm fighting a bit of a flu bug - but a race is a race, once you get going you tend to forget about all the other stuff. Beat my time from last year and PR'd at 48:04, but most importantly, I beat my 14-year old son and his cousin - the old man is still undefeated, but they are nipping at my heals and my days are numbered. Couple of hours rest and recovery - then it's a four-hour trainer ride, yeehaw! |
