River Bank Run

First of all, I must confess that this blog entry is way overdue. This post should have been entered weeks ago, but I will say this - I tried. I wrote an entry and then it got lost in cyber space. It's too bad too, because it was funny.

Anyway, the race. Personally, I had a good race. It was the first time I ran the entire 15.5 miles. Previous years I had to walk because of a variety of reasons. My first year - I was a wimp, and I fell apart mentally around mile 13 and decided to walk. My second year - I didn't train like I should have. My third year - I got cramps in my legs. But this year - I ran the whole way!!! I even kept running when a woman with one leg passed me. She passed me around mile 4 and was gone, but she had an advantage. She had a little spring in her fake leg that was helping her out.

However, that didn't get me down. I kept pounding the pavement and ended up with a finishing time of 2 hours, 18 minutes. Not bad. I would have liked to be around 2 Hours 5 minutes, but there's always next year.

Anyway, that's it for now. More posts to come soon. I promise - even though there are only 2-3 people who actually read this blog.

Peace out
Dave
