A Last Hurrah

Things are winding down for me in the North Star State.  This past weekend, my folks absconded with my apartment, so all I'm left with are some clothes and a pot in which I can make pasta.  Oh, and now my living room has become a Command Center:




Before I leave, I'd like to do another race or two.  I'm signed up for one already, and I'm contemplating a second.  The one I'm signed up for is the TC 1 Mile.  I know that I'm not in top racing condition (for any distance, but particularly a mile), but this looks to be a fun race, and I'd like to give myself a chance to win a guaranteed entry into the TC 10 Mile in October.  For the 1 Mile, I'm going to enjoy it (as much as one can enjoy a 1 mile sprint...) and get a baseline of what fitness I've managed to salvage over the past few months.  It will also give me a reason to go to my local track a few more times before I leave.

I'm excited to race again, and racing down Nicollet Mall on a Thursday evening sounds pretty awesome.

HECK YES! I'll keep an eye out for you but I'll be doing the media thing in the finish line. Still sad you're leaving!

Thanks Hannah! I'll keep my eyes peeled for you around the finish. Most likely, you'll be interviewing me for setting the world record in a road mile. Or not...
