Half Marathon Anyone?!?!

So...I've pretty much fallen off the map at dailymile. I've done a bit of running here and there over the last couple of months, but nothing near what I had been doing and I haven't been recording it very well.

The longest run I've done in the last several weeks was a whopping 4 miles.

But I'm "running" the Oak Brook Half Marathon tomorrow. Nice.

Mr. Bloomers will accompany me as we trot about the course. The kidlets will stay home with a baby-sitter.

Kind of like date night.

But not. (We don't usually run till we hurl on date night.)

Good thing.

I'm not expecting to PR. LOL. Just have my sights on a finisher's medal.

Night before last I had bad dreams about not being able to get to the starting line in time for the race. Mr. Bloomers had a dream where I ditched him with 6 miles left to go and he felt lost and abandoned.

When we registered many weeks ago it seemed like a good idea.

When we realized how poorly prepared we were going to be, it began to be a humorous idea.

And at this moment it seems kind of like a dumb idea, but that won't stop us.

Happy Labor Day!!!
