We came home from our trip last night from Twin Falls. I never got a chance to run due to a hectic schedule. I found myself taking occasional deep breaths to catch my thoughts and sanity over the weekend. Steve has been traveling for perspective jobs around various hospitals. The recruiter had put some time in the iternary for a tour of the area school district. The "tour" ended up being a meeting with the school district super intendant, principal, and district HR manager for a Q&A. We had nothing but we tried with deferred attempts, so we deferred to the kids. They had great questions like, "Do you have fun play ground equipment?" "Is your school lunch good?" "Is it healthy food or good food?" How many kids would be in my class?" "Where's the bathroom." And finally, "Are we almost done?" It's alway's fun traveling with kids. Anyone know much about Twin Falls?
Easy miles with Andy and Becky this morning on LPT. It was cold and dark, I could even see my breath. Came home and ran 10x20 secs @ 5:00 with 30 sec jog. Nice to get legs moving again since Saturday. I've caught some mild cold symptoms. I wonder if most of it is from racing on Saturday morning in the cold. I've been coughing ever since, but it seems to be dying down. Should be fine with some Emergen C.
I received my STG bib #5014. I was glad to see the number where it was. It seems mentally there is less pressure to bring that number down than to be ranked high and not let it slip. I think top 20 will be pretty competitive this year. I even think the top 6 will be under 2:50. Something that has not happened since that weird year when like the top ~20 women were under that. Anyone else notice that?
