For reals...

I finally registered.

I finally registered for the Turkey Trot. It's a 5k race on Thanksgiving morning in Twin Falls, Idaho. ((Shivers)). I would feel a lot better about this upcoming race if I had actually gotten out of bed this morning to run as I had planned. However, I have no recollection of my alarm ever going off before 6:30 AM. None whatsoever.

I have to say the thing I am most looking forward to is running this race with my sweet friend Erica. She's the best race partner a girl could ask for. And I know from experience.

Race 014

This is a picture of us after our first race together in 2006. I haven't run an actual race since, so I'm happy that Erica will be by my side again for this one. Feel free to wish us luck. Though I'm sure I'll be needing it more than she does.

See you soon Erica!

I feel privileged to have made your blog. However, undoubtedly I will need the luck....particularly since I have not run. Period. In like weeks... Should be interesting! But I'm super excited to see you! Even if I have to nearly die to do it.
