I GET THERE..AND WE'RE WALKING after we park to where we need to take our place and like it's about a good couple miles of walking and it felt like the whole city was walking with us...so many people..and then im like wait a minute, half these people have HEADPHONES on..and ME? i left mine at home...cuz the rules said we're not supposed to have them..so i was annoyed cuz this was the first time i was running without headphones..and i was like this is sooo unfair and my friend was like, theyre going to get kicked out for it and i was like right..whos gonna notice in these herds?? anyway i get to my spot and the people next to me have headphones.pretty much ALL c ollege aged students had headphones on. it irked me and i began to panic cuz a lot of them were like are you kidding? we cant run without music. and im like aaaaaaahhhh what do i do!! so anyway apparently headphones are allowed? whatever. i didnt care..i was like way to excited to feel anything. so then it finally began adn the live bands sorta sucked...i mean i listen to dance or techno and so this was like rock and stuff and im like great. but it's ok cuz this way i was able to seta personal record for myself...longest run without headphones for me.

Re: runners and running
Isn't exercising in the rain amazing? When ever I bike to work in the rain I somehow have more energy. Makes me feel sorry that the car drivers can't enjoy the rain as much as me. Of course they think they have the advantage

Re: runners and running
So, I'm back from the race and all showered. It was really fun. I think it took me about 2:40 but I'll find out for sure when they do the whole chip thing. I went out too fast in the beginning, so I didn't have endurance later. Around mile 8 I was wondering what made me think this was a good idea and afterwards and I was thinking about my next one!

Nice! Yea I get feelings of thinking I'm insane on mile 40 of a 60 mile bike ride most of the time. But then when I finish, I'm thinking of my next ride
Congrats btw!
