Late report on Thursday's run

RUN 7.6 miles time unknown, a little over an hour? Ran with the group, but the group broke up a bit, with me and D ahead. The slushy ice pushed us off our usual route, so a few of tacked on a few miles at the end. D was doing high turnover drills, he kept going faster faster faster and finally he explained it. I was struggling a bit to keep up! But I think now that it would be fun to put some intervals or drills into this run.

Thursday SWIM didn't happen. just no time.
Friday SWIM didn't happen.
Saturday BIKE didn't happen.

What did happen? The FBR! It's over! Hurray!! All the work in the end was worth it, all the planning, listmaking, thinking, checking, erranding, etc--all worth it in the end. I didn't forget anything like I did last year. I delegated more this year. And now looking back, it happened like my wedding did. At lunch, I thought back over the day and wondered "who did this" and someone would tell me. Or how did this happen, and someone would explain. I'm learning of a million little threads of stories that wove the day together. And I'm in a huge debt to all the volunteers who did all the work. I'm trying to find a way to express appreciation.

Now that the race is over, back to normal!
