All Systems Go for Sunday
Regardless of the weather, Waverly and I are both ready to go for Sunday's events.
We had a great time at the Expo today - where she told Dr. Bob Hoekman and myself very early this morning how to make sure that we had the A/V plugs connected from the video camera to the TV. Turns out she was right while we continued to figure out why the video camera was rolling and that there was nothing on the screen.
Waverly ran Tuesday night at the track and then did a 2-mile brisk walk on Thursday evening. I didn't get a run in - albeit light - on Wednesday and Thursday because of the weather and Vancouver and travel, however I did make it to the gym Friday morning to loosen up on the elliptical trainer.
What's my plan for tomorrow? Finish, for one. Depending on the weather, I'll try to see if I can give my time goal a shot, but I'm not going to fret over things if I don't. The one person that I had hoped to pace with is going to try and run with the 4:15 pace group -- yikes! Too fast for me. I can do that in a half, but not in a full -- yet.
Waverly? Well, her run at the track on Tuesday isn't what she may would have wanted it to be, but she had hurt her back in school the day before trying to do a forward roll in gymnastics.
We did find a pacer, by the way. (I was asked a couple of times this weekend.) Well, actually, the pacer found us. :)
And, if you're reading this late Saturday night, you can wait one more day to find out - and hopefully with a PR report for her! (The person that is pacing her ran a good part of the 5K course a few years ago to a win in a late spring 5K race.)
Where will we be in the morning? Near the running clubs area in the George R. Brown Convention Center Hall C - and inside of that near The Woodlands Running Club banner.
Best wishes to all - whether you're attempting to BQ, PR or are running a specific event for the first time!

Best of luck tomorrow!
Good luck to Waverly on her PR. I hope hydroplaning is a favorable race technique for us.
