Spent a bunch of the day with Eric and Elliott at Jun's Half-Pregnant Half-Marathon. I was glad I wasn't running since (1) I don't like running in the wind, (2) I don't like running on trails that have big hills, (3) I'm not in shape to run a half-marathon, and (4) what to do with Elliott if Eric and I are both running? But there weren't any women running the half, so I totally would have won! Bummer. :) It was a lot of fun to meet other people who like running, and the barbecue/Altra lovefest after the race at Jun's was a good time. In between getting home, pumping for Elliott, and going dancing with Eric (yay! And he did great! We're planning on going again after Thanksgiving, so all you couples who want to be out dancing on the weekends should join us) I did a quick mile at the gym. Easy first half, 6:31 last half. I need to run more miles (to be able to run longer) and get stronger (to be able to run faster), so I figured I'd try to work on the getting stronger part in the time I had left myself. 
P.S. On the pee thing - (1) totally should have gone to a urogyn sooner. We have a great non-surgical, non-pharmacological plan that will eventually include some sort of device. But (2) apparently there's some other pregnancy/delivery-related problem that has to get resolved first (not at all running-related, so I won't go into it here), so the fix is really at least a month or two away.
