Race Day

The day dawned cloudy and cool. Yup. Perfect race weather.

I woke up around 5:15am and realized if I were racing I'd already be on my way. It was still dark as pitch out at that hour. I comforted myself with the fact that I could go back to sleep and rolled over.

At 7am, start time, I woke up. That was when I realized how perfect the weather was for running a race. I went back to sleep.

8am rolled around and I dragged myself out of bed, thinking I'd be heading for the halfway mark, and limped into the bathroom. Yup, today was not my day to race. It would have been a good one though and I think I would have had a good personal time.

Here's to the next one.
