Ok mostly, but I’m still pretty upset. So I ran a little further than I originally intended, but not a bad 5.3 miles<\/a>. Maybe I’ll do a couple more miles on top of today’s route tomorrow and Sunday. It’s tough to gauge, I know I need to take it easy, but it’s just one mile every day all week coming up. We’re trying to do a very tough marathon course in less than 4 hours. Luckily, it’s a small event and I have lots of friends there to help me along. Running seems like a very solitary thing, but on race day, the crowd, your friends, the support, it’s a big difference and it all really helps and it really is a team effort.
\nSo we’re coming up to the holiday crunch time. Just a couple weeks left for some, Hanukkah starts Sunday, I mean we’re in it now. No turning back! Like it or not, ’tis the season! Given I believe in spreading goodwill and cheer all times of year, it doesn’t make anything different. but I keep hoping others will carry the spirit past January for once. I know it won’t happen, but I have to hold out hope. Particularly after the events of the last couple weeks.
\nSo let’s get into it with some good Crimbo musics!
