After perusing last year's stats on the Friehofer website yesterday, I came to a discouraging conclusion.
I may be the VERY last finisher. There is an 81 year old woman who can apparently run circles around me. She will be done and drinking gatorade, and I'll still be trudging along.
Unless I trip her.
I pondered all of that this morning while I was running, and yes, I am still going to run, and if all goes well Suzy will be there at the finish line (good bonus, she's a nurse) -- right now she doesn't have to work so keep your fingers crossed. Just for the record, I ruled out tripping anyone...
...but I am definitely NOT drinking beer with Yort and the K's the night before. Even if they ARE drinking Sam Adams Summer Ale, which is awesome.
Random thoughts, which I post while I am pretending I am STILL age 39.99999! Join me for my next 40 years...
