san antonio riverwalk

3 more days! my first half marathon (13.1 miles/21k). in san antonio. i really never thought i'd run a race farther than a 10k (6.2 miles)... it's surreal to come to the end of the program after training for so long. and it's strange how calm i am, but i just feel 'ready'. i guess that comes with consistent training =)

it was a long day... =) but fun

started out with a 5k on the SMU campus this morning - and ran a new personal record time of 29:23! After the race, Jim and I both won prizes in the Theta Raffle - me a 25.00 gift certificate for food, and jim a 25.00 gift certificate for merchandise at a local school spirit store!

The SMU homecoming game against Tulane started at 2pm... and we stayed and watched a little while before heading up north to Celina... to the Celina balloon fest!

Unfortunately, high winds kept the balloons from coming out for a lift or even a glow. But the festival was cool, with a couple live bands and festive atmosphere. And again, it's been a long day!

I don't like daylight savings time, but i'll take that extra hour of sleep tonight!

happy friday!

it's the weekend. i wish a happy one to all.

eleven

eleven more days til the half marathon! jim from Terrell Daily Photo and I will be doing the Rock n Roll half marathon in San Antonio on Sunday, November 13th. Eleven days away!

we've actually ran a similar distance race already - today's photo, the Lost Dog 20k. 20k is 12.4 miles vs the half marathon 21k - 13.1 miles... just 1k or 0.7miles short =)
