All raced out...


I have participated in a ridiculous amount of races this year... my race budget has by far been surpassed. I participated in another race today... a marathon relay. I did it for the first time two years ago and quickly became hooked. This was my third year to participate and it was again a success! Last year they capped the registration to only 50 teams, but this year they let it stay open and we had 97 teams. We took first place in our category and got first place medals! It was very exciting.

However, I am a little raced out. I need a little break. It has been difficult for me to keep a very strict training schedule with school starting... I might just take a little break for a while... not from running, but from racing. Here are the pictures from all of the exchanges today.

  1. Wow. You are the racing queen! But that's why you look so great. I have missed seeing you at the D.O. on Fridays. Barbie was eating lunch alone yesterday and I was thinking she always looked happier to eat lunch with you. Hope your year is going well. I'll stop by sometime...

  2. To avoid burnout I find it helpful to avoid training altogether ...What? This next race is 26.2 miles? No biggie.

  3. You are so great! I just caught up on the last month of your blog and you never cease to amaze me with all the stuff you can do. It would take 6 normal people to complete one Jessie agenda!
