Had a nice week of running despite the ridiculous wind and cold front that moved in the last 4-5 days. Got just under 40 miles in and I'm pretty excited for the race coming up in a couple weeks. Given that its a small fundraiser I may be up there with some of the stronger runners and I may go for a fast time and see if I can't place in a respectable spot. I'd like to roll in under 1:40 and it's a pretty flat course so it's possible.
Lots on the mind right now so my hamster in the wheel is working overtime. Finally got the Arizona job offer and now it's time to put all the pieces of this move together. It's a very stressful situation even though it's really where I want to be. Nothing better than a long run to work out the logistics of a move like this and I hope to make this as smooth as transition as possible. (if that's possible)
Change in life is inevitable and this is definitely gonna be one of those changes that I'll be looking back on with a whole different perspective several years from now. Things will just remain tumultuous for the next few months as I will be turning 30 (holy crap), personal relationships will be changing, my job will likely present a new set of stressful situations, and my parents may be back in my life in a way they haven't been for over 10 years now.
Ah well, when everything else is in a state of change, at the very least one thing remains the same. I can always get out, breath some fresh air, and just run.
Arizona tomorrow, trip to the west side in 12 days, half marathon in 13 days :-) Plenty to be happy about....
Train on my friends.... I mean, my friend (Ryan)
