The race must go on!

Although it won't this week as I had planned. I had it all organized- I mapped out a 13 mile path along White Rock Lake in Dallas, arranged my water boy (Rick), had Jonah being watched, called my personal cheerleaders (niece and nephews) and then.......... I get sick! Yep- haven't been sick all school year, even when everyone else had the flu this Winter, I was good. But now, I have a temperature, hot and cold chills, sore throat, congestion- it's just ugly. So yet another weekend of fulfilling this running goal down the tubes. I worked out Monday and Tuesday and by Wednesday I was done- just don't have the energy.

So next scheduled time to run my own personal 1/2 marathon- Memorial Day Weekend- Saturday, May 23rd. This again, will be one that I am organizing and not one being held by sponsors. The Heels and Hills did reschedule their 1/2 marathon, but not until 09.27.......ummmm not sure I want to wait that long. Although Rick seems to think I will do my own Memorial Day and then do the one in Sept too. As of right now, I am ready to be done with running, ready to go back to working out for me and not for a race, ready to feel accomplished and know I did the best I can and achieved something far from my reach (or so I thought).

So I've arranged my same "crew" of helpers, cheerleaders, etc. for May 23rd. So if you're in the area of White Rock Lake and would like to see some crazy lady running drenched in sweat, with a smile on her face, running her darnest towards a group of crazy people aka family and friends-come on down.
