Lunch 8+2.  Our Utah house sale recorded today, so I have no official ties to that state any more.  Happy and sad- we enjoyed our time there, but have less stress now.  One good thing about SC- My vote today might actually matter in the election, unlike in Utah... :)

Lunch 7 xt.  I'm definitely having a low-key approach to my race on Saturday.  My training has been pretty mediocre, and my health is iffy (injury wise)... so this will be a race where my primary goal is enjoyment.  It's supposed to be 25 deg at the start, with a chance of snow!

Lunch- I only wanted to go 4-5 miles, but 40 min had passed the first time I looked at my watch, and we were still 2 miles out.  Time flies when you're having fun.
