I can not believe they didn't cancel the NYC marathon.  I know it's a big deal to cancel and have everyone change reservations and everything, but really nothing proves with more clarity what a self-centered frivolous pursuit marathon running truly is.  How can we be so determined to force organizers to host a race for 30,000 people through a city recently decimated and has been without electricity (at least half of it) since Sunday night. I know the show must go on and New Yawkers are tough and everything--but give me a break.  The whole idea of the race seems frivolous and inhuman in light of the lasting damage of the storm.  Either that or New York is the greediest place on earth not wanting to turn away 320 million$$ in revenue even if it means sweeping the swollen dead bodies of drowned children out of the streets for the start of the race over on Staten Island. Geeze.

Excited to run 8 miles with Cath on Saturday.  She's running 30 miles because it's her 30th birthday.  She's crazy that way, but not as crazy as Smooth who ran 50 for her birthday :)

Was able to share an annual birthday run with Cath and her friend Nan. I met them at the Mouth of the canyon and ran up and back for about 9.5 or so, our Garminns lose satellite coverage somewhere under the bridges, so not exactly sure. It was so gratifying to be able to run. It's been so long since I ran with my old running friends. But I had to do w hat I had to do for recovery and its been a lonely road. So sharing the Scorpio run with Cath was a wonderful

milestone for me. Though she's become accustomed to training at much faster miles, I think running a few 10's saved a l title gas in the tank for her. She ended up not only running 30 on her 30th birthday, shed. I'd 50k just cause it's so close to the 30 she wanted. I have so missed my training runs with Cath. But she's a better runner now and knows what she's capable of. I always said I was. Just babysitting and she needed to fly the coop. She ran all those Marathons with me just because she was My friend. I feel so blessed to h ave such amazing friends....Of course the best friends are always born on the saMe week as me--since scorpios can only stand and understand each other :) We have soup feast coming up with Ashley, and then y birthday week will be complete. But you won't catch me running a mile for every year I've been alive. I've been alive ow much longer than I could possibly run without being an ultra distance freak, which I am not (yet).....
