I know it just turned into August a couple of days ago, but it feels like fall. Yesterday, when I started my long run at 6, it was all but 50 degrees. I LOVED it. Something about the weather and everything made me feel unstoppable. Went a little over 19 miles and felt GREAT.
At weigh in this morning, I was down 22.2 pounds! Great feeling. I have 14 left to go to get to my goal.
Speaking of goals – here is my upcoming race schedule:

I am doing the Gopher to Badger Half Saturday and then Pikes Peak the following Saturday – this will qualify me for the Half Maniacs!
I am also planning on doing the KC Marathon after Chicago, which will then qualify me for Marathon Maniacs.

Red White & Boom Half
This was on the fourth of July. What a great race! Tanya and I started out with Kate. We ended up pulling a little ahead of her and finishing around 2:14. Tucker and Cassie rented some bikes and found us towards the end and heckled us, but it was great.
Afton 25K
I didn’t fall!!! Very hot race. Greg ran with me the whole time. Pretty fun. Was very glad when it was over though. Hilly course. Lots of great people.
