I'm so famous

I was on the news last night in a story about the race yesterday. I guess it was a shot of me at the finish line high-fiving the guy in my training group who helped get me through the final two miles. Fortunately I didn't actually see it - I did see what I looked like when I got home, which was pretty raggedy even without the dirt streak I apparently had on my face that Andy wiped off just after we finished. My coworker said I looked like I was dancing like Ed Grimly - the Martin Short character from SNL. I am one cool chick.

We got some serious rain on our run tonight. I took it as a sign to pack it in a little early. I felt remarkably good for having run 12 hard hilly miles yesterday - and this is good because I'm already dreading our hilly 21-miler on Saturday. It's such a hard run that Steve's giving us tomorrow night off from the workout. He wants us to be ready. (So I won't run *too* hard tomorrow ...)

Congratulations! Who knows, maybe that'll be your big break...

Not only are you so popular, but you're now going to be famous. Oh, the life! So good to meet you and Andy this weekend! I told my friends about the Brown Sata joke Andy made and they thought it was hilarious (they have TV, unlike dorky me). By the way, I didn't think you looked bad at all, just a little wet. Me on the other hand, you should have told me what my hair looked like! Anyhow, I think you ran well, if that helps at all. Here's hoping that you have a couple of good (and hard) weeks of training to remind you just how damn fit you are.

Take care!

you mean my big break into the clown business?

Eight weeks until the taper - we've got some work to do!
