Late Saturday Morning Treadmill
Despite not getting up to drive down to the Heights and hang out at the Heights Fun Run 5K, I really had a wonderful morning. I'm so blessed to be a part of our sports and the people that I know it who are a part of.
After dropping Waverly off for her last day of volleyball camp at close to 9 a.m., I stopped to fill up with gas, went to Barnes and Noble in The Woodlands to get some reading material for the treadmill (SI and one of the Big 12 college football magazines) and then I headed towards Luke's Locker on Market Street. This is where I found the individual that I had been trying to call for the last day and a half -- Bill Dwyer!
Missy Baugh, Debbie Tripp, Bill and Kim Hager were sharing with me the opening day success of the Fall Marathon/Half Marathon Woodlands Fit training program. 70 runners kicked off the program with their main target being the San Antonio Marathon (however, a couple of their runners are doing the Chicago or the New York City Marathon).
We all walked over to Berryhill's on Market Street for a bit of late breakfast. (Since I hadn't run yet, and had something light from when I filled up with gas, I just had some water.)
We then worked our way back towards Luke's Locker where I conversed the usual entourage of Luke's employees, which today included Dave Smart, Rick Cook, Mary Kerschbuam, Cathy Steele, Andrea Kaylor (College Park High School girls cross country coach) and Allison Cravey.
Bill and I arranged with store manager Mick Long and Rick Cook about how we want to stage Run The Woodlands 5K next Saturday. Basically, after the finish, we'll have our Friends of the Running Community announcement, the awarding of the Saw Trophy and then the post-race goodies giveaways from Luke's. (Bill and I will set up, work the chutes, and do the results next Saturday.)
Then I went to Bally's, worked on the treadmill, and set up my first Personal Trainer visit for Friday morning at 9 a.m. My goal is to get stronger in my arms, legs and core.
Today, I feel very empowered in the goals that I'm setting for myself.
