where's the faith?!
so after my announcement of signing up for the Bolder Backroads half-marathon i received the following email from my dear mother...
"....I just saw the Boulder terrain for the half. . . . . ARE YOU CRAZY????? it looks worse than San Fran. Thank God
you are doing only the half."
nice, right?! obviously she has forgotten that i am little miss runner pants... running goddess extraordinaire!!! i mean come on!
however, what she is referring to, is this...
so she may have a point.
... but probably not!!
in other news, because apparently i'm on a movie kick...
Surf's Up
Ocean's 13
Mr. Brooks and
Waitress are all now out in the theatres, making for a rather difficult decision for what to see tonight/this weekend.
but, if deciding which movie to see is the hardest thing on my list, then.. i guess i'm doing alright!!

The good thing about that race is that once you make it to the 1/2 way point it's pretty much all down hill (except for the part that goes up - hahahaha... ) You can do it.
Keep those movie reviews coming on the off chance I might actually make it out to the theater one of these days.

What's 300 ft?
Except that there will be no oxygen.
Minor detail.
Waitress isn't playing in this neck of the woods, which is sad because Mal from Firefly is just soooo cute and who doesn't love Felicity?

Danielle beat me to it but I think the altitude will be the trickiest aspect of this half:) What fun is it to run 13.1 if you can't have a little "fun" with it?

Altitude, hills, heat, dry air, little support along the way (carry water). If you wanted flats, you would have signed up for the Denver marathon and/or half.
It's one of the best races we have...next to Pikes Peak.

Sounds exactly like the response when I signed up for my 1st marathon, 1st 1/2 ironman and 1st full ironman....To me it makes it that much better finishing the event :)
Go kick some a$$
