I keep neglecting to write which is ridiculous since I'm bored at work 95% of the time. You would think I'd be happy to have some kind of outlet to exercise my brain but instead I spend my time calculating wedding costs and looking at houses on realtor.com. I guess those things count as intellectual stimulation. I don't think I ever made my half marathon official. Yes, that's right, I finally signed up for a half marathon! It's right here in Bloomington and it's in less than 2 weeks (April 4th). It even supports a good cause. The proceeds go toward a scholarship fund for students who are cancer survivors! I have been training for about 9 weeks now and I am ready to just run the damn thing and be done with it. Training just adds extra pressure to life in general. I know I'd be running even if I wasn't training, but knowing that I MUST go run makes it hard.
The weather has been excellent lately, which makes it easier to get out there and run. Unfortunately, the arrival of spring means allergies. My throat has been terribly scratchy and yesterday and I had to use my shirt as a hankerchief to blow my nose.
Lessons learned: 1. Take allergy medicine before the big race, 2. Bring a bandana to help a runny nose.
