This is my next BIG run...December 14.....26.2 baby!

First day of school AND first day of soccer, this field will be
home for the next few months.....

Ryan's first day of 2nd grade went very well...He's growing up fast...

The Texas Hottest Half marathon

First two miles went great, after that…reality started to set in.
Miles 3-6 legs started to feel like lead and it didn’t get any better.
Miles 7-10 my feet felt like bricks…well, come to find out there was a good reason
For that, as I was running, my shoes were filling up with sweat making them 3Xs heavier .
Miles 10-13.1 where just plane brutal. Thighs started to cramp so at this point it becomes a mental game within yourself. Needless to say I survived and came in at 2.05.59…not my best time by a long shot but I was really just going for completion on this one.

Ryan taking over after I took a seriously HOT bath.
He just COULDN'T waste all those bubbles!

Flat and Fast!...not much to look at....12,000 riders behind these guys....

First half of my weekend is over...went very well, fastest time ever! average speed 20.6
tomorrow will be a challenge, I'll know within the first 6 miles if I went to hard on the HHH ride.
