Anyway... Sunday morning my sis and I took our bikes down to Huntington for the race. Guess what. Totally. Pouring. Rain. I think that was God's subtle way of telling me I should have been at church rather than participating in the race. But, whatevs. Despite the rain and the wind it was fun. But I sure was glad I wasn't attempting the marathon because 45 mins out in the rain was more than enough for me.
Official time: 31:05
BLERG! I blame not hitting my 30min goal on the cold rain. I should be seriously happy about this time since the last time I ran an official 5k (july '06) I finished in 37mins and I am happy... just not as happy as I would be if it were a minute faster.

Soaking wet and sporting my finishing medal:
PS- ohmigosh... I had an awful dream last night that I got to the Wasatch Back Relay and realized that I'd forgotten to tell half of my team about it. So I only had half a team there and after two legs we realized that the other van didn't even show up and everyone but me wanted to give up so, with no team, I had no choice but to abandon the relay. It was heartbreaking! It's gotta mean something but I'm not sure I want to know what...

Hey...way to go on the time, even had there not been "weather".
When do we need to register for Wasatch Back?
