Just A General Update
1.) I ran for an hour at Bally's on Friday afternoon on the treadmill. (Waverly went with me and split time between the stationary bike and the elliptical machine.) I hadn't done anything during the week, but felt pretty good. Enough to drive on Saturday (well Friday night) to San Marcos to run a 10K.
2.) Spring ISD was out all of last week and Waverly will go back to school on Wednesday. It will be interesting to where they take the seven (7) days from out of the schedule. Thanksgiving week? Easter week? Who knows?
3.) I'm still on my regular routine to and from Jackson, Mississippi. I didn't make it to the office in Jackson on Monday until about 4:30 p.m., but still got a lot done. It was a good, productive week. The team ended up collecting just over $40 million last month - a new all-time record. It is amazing what gets done when you do things right and on-time.
4.) Wrote my Tuesday column for the Courier about my two runs last weekend - and the human spirit. I rarely write about my running, but I thought it might inspire a few people. I'll try to post it here later when I have my flash card in the computer.
5.) Bill was still without power as late as mid-day Saturday. However, he said that Nora and Lou Wilson ran Run The Woodlands 5K on Saturday morning. It was only the two of them -- and that is all you need for a race. Nora beat Lou, Bill said.
6.) I bought my airplane ticket for Midland/Odessa to fly out there Friday, October 3 and return on Sunday, October 5 for the first West Texas CrossRoads Marathon. I may not be completely (and traditionally) ready, but if I'm able to finish it will be marathon no. 20 for me.
7.) For those of you that are TWRC members, I did not produce an eDeerTracks on Friday.
8.) Part of the reason for no. 7 was a.) much of The Woodlands was still without power and b.) I was finishing up my Runner Triathlete News column and putting the finishing touches on Footprints.
I think this should do it until I think of some more things. :)
Hope that everyone has come through the storm relatively unscathed.
