Hood to Coast. check!
6 miles - I was too much of a wimp to run in the tail of a rainshower today on the group run. So I hit the treadmill and spent about 3 of my 6 miles talking to my bestie from Denver, Christine. Last year we implemented the "wednesday drive calls". She works in Denver and lives in Boulder (we used to be roomies when I lived there) and so she has a commute. When the weather is nice I exercise outside during the call and she drives home. Total win/win. And I get to catch up with one of the most wonderful people I know. I'm thinking perhaps a trek out to Denver for a wee bit of a stay in October. Which gets me thinking about my upcoming travel ponderings. I'm thinking late summer perhaps for a Boise reunion and have committed to a team for the Hood to Coast relay in August in Portland. This relay is SO MUCH fun! 12 person (3 legs each), 196 miles, start at Mt. Hood and end on the beach in Seaside, OR. I'm committed so onward (except I hope I don't have one of the first few legs, the last time I ran it I had leg 2, down Mt Hood and we had to drain under my toenails with a syringe in the medic tent at the coast. yeah. not good.).

Oh, wow. That Hood to Coast Relay looks awesome! I'll have to try to find a team for next year. :)
ReplyDeleteOmigawsh that relay sounds awesome. Another friend of mine has done it too and loved it. I am doing the Sawtooth Relay this year, maybe next year I can be ready for the Hood To Coast. YAYAYAY! Oh and yay for Boise Reunion! ;)
ReplyDeleteI was on a high from this race the first year I did it over 10 years ago. It is a blast, I recommend to anyway wanting a new kind of run that has team and fun written all over it! :-) yay!
