Running Updates

Well, I have some good news, and some bad news. I ran 6 miles today. That's pretty good. It took me a long time, but I ran the whole time, except for the time that I got lost and had to call Jake to get me back on track. Who knew the Iphone would be so usefully. You can play your tunes on it while your running, and call for directions.

The bad news. I might not be able to participate in Grandma's after all. There is a summer session that runs from May 26 to June 26th. If I can take a class I will, but unfortunately I don't think I'll be able to make the race on June 20th. Not feasible to fly up and back just for a race, considering I'll be up there again a few weeks later, and I'll probably have finals.

It's not a done deal yet. I still have to find out if there is a class that would work for me. But chances are I could get an elective or something to pan out.

I'm disappointed because I really was motivated to run, and am glad I still have the 10k to look forward to. I'm also thinking about doing a half marathon later in the spring just to keep my motivation up.
