"Did you put some ice in your bra?," Maggie asked at the water stop for Mile 10. I'm sorry, but could you repeat that? Maggie and her very fit running buddy explained that at the last ice chest/ATP water stop, they had taken some of the ice out of the chest and put it in their bra. "I took three. Would you like a piece?" Maggie asked (reaching into her sports bra). The fact that I considered it for a minute is a testament to the blazing Texas heat. I won't embarrass the tall, pretty blonde that took her up on the offer because when you're running, the normal rules just don't apply.
Today, I made my way through sixteen miles, but it was rough, people. I guess that's why not many people make running sixteen miles part of their to do list on a Saturday morning.
Timmy is on the injured list for a few days and I'm sending out lots of positive energy to him. I'd run another sixteen miles if it meant that his hip would heal any faster. Good thoughts, Timmy. Good thoughts.
Ah KC. You are the best. My hip and I are sitting on my exercise ball in awe of your 16 miles.
