Well today was Run Hit Wonder. When i woke up things seemed fine and all and i got on max to head down there then realize immediatly after the train takes off that i forgot my timing chip. luckily i have my cell and call my dad to pick me up at the next stop. i get home and start thrashing my room looking for this chip and in the process lost some thing that i did have previously. BAH. I got stressed out and couldnt find my cell and other somewhat important items. I decided finally to just go and have my dad drive me. We got there rather quick and i started warming up considering the race was going to start in 30 min. The bag check line was incredibly long and going slow so i decided to stash my stuff in some bushes a ways up the road. At the start of the race i get up to the front with Dan and his friends from University of Puget Sound. I looked back and saw a "sea of orange" because everyone is wearing a bright orange shirt.
First mile was fast, 5:05 according to dan but i thought i saw 5:10. lol. whoops. After that i was going alright until the 5k running split off and left me in no mans land, ie absolutly no one around me. I pretty much stayed by my self for the rest of the race and it made it much worse. I remember the 4 mile being around 22:30, maybe low 22. There were bands all along the race but i went by them far too fast. my dad, who came to watch said people were stopping during the race to listen to the bands, which i find hilarious for some reason. I finished the race in 35:03(unoffical, lol) which isnt as fast as i hoped but it was a difficult course considering the last 1/2 of the course was up hill.
After i got home i showered then took a 2 hour nap. oh i love naps, and i dont get them during the week. this evening i finally got my pond/waterfall going. thats all i think. 2 weeks till i start getting ready to go back to FIT, how time flys.
