Bay to Breakers

I just finished the Bay to Breakers race. What an experience that was. All good and fun though! Here's a picture of my friend, her daughter and me after the race. Also, one of one of the many costumes that I thought was funny. And yes, I have pictures of people running naked. And no, I won't post them on the web!

Catch up - again!

I see it's been over a month since I last posted. Lets see, work is going as usual. The big event of the year is over and just one more week of actual school for the students left. It's always nice to go on to summer time! Running is going well. I've been averaging just over 20 miles per week. It feels good - although I keep thinking I should lose at least a little more weight. Then again, my eating is not the best. It could be a lot worse though so I just need to be thankful for what I have. And maybe go to the gym more than twice a week! I've also been catching up on a lot of reading. Now that I'm buying less book (and actually using the library), my tbr pile is getting smaller. In a couple of months it may get to the point where it's just books on my bookshelf waiting to be read, and not around the floor as well!

As for future plans, we're planning another trip up the cost in July. We have the trailer, and a place to stay the first few nights (going to see my Grandmother!), but we haven't made the reservations for the rest of the nights. I've picked the places and written down the phone numbers. My problem is that I do that late at night, and these places are only open for reservations during normal business hours. So hopefully today we'll get that done! And, next week I'm running in the Bay to Breakers race (I think it's just over 7 miles with a killer incline around mile 2.5) with a friend of mine. Since it's a hilly race, and more run for the fun and scenery, I plan on slowing down my pace and just enjoying the people and such around me. I'm really looking forward to it though. And when I get back, I need to buy some new running shoes!
