Running

I am running in my first race since Thanksgiving Saturday night up at the Fort Myers Festival of Light.  This is a fun run because it is along a jam packed parade route.  It is a big race with over 1000 participants.  The downside to the race is parking sucks with so many people, both parade watchers and runners converging on the same area.  Last year Ali ran this race with me.  She still hasn’t reestablished her running fitness since her knee problems so instead she is going to be cheering me on with the two dogs in tow.  It should be a fun time.  I have no idea how I’ll do.  A sub 25 minute time would be great but with the huge backlog of runners at the start there is very little probability I will break that number. 

I have a list full of things in my head I want to get done this weekend including cleaning out the garage and quickly mowing and weed whacking the property.  It’s looking a bit ragged.

I’m sure the dogs will keep us entertained during the lulls in work.  They are quite fun to just watch.
