Next up…

Next up…

before *officially* beginning my training on Monday for NYC is Fleet Feet Chicago’s inaugural Women’s Half Marathon.  It should be fun, although my legs have been a bit fatigued this week from cross-fit and, strange as it sounds, the hot weather.

As much as I can tell, this half marathon replaces FF’s all-women’s 5k/10k that they used to have every July, on what was usually an extremely hot and humid Sunday morning in late July.  I hope the weather on Sunday will be more bearable than it usually is in late July… or at least better than what it was earlier this week.  I have no idea how well I’ll run on Sunday; suffice it to say that I’ll be happy with a sub-2 performance.

A wanted to model the race shirt 🙂

The back... she's loving it
and the front! I think she wiped her runny nose on the couch behind her. So ladylike.

Race report, in blog or vlog (or both!) form, to follow.

Onward and upward.

And finally, these are just some funny vans 🙂

Cougar style!

In retrospect, I should have taken more pictures of the ridiculous vans because some of them were just… great.

Next year, friends.
