It's so nice to see you again, October. Every year I yearn for your return, and every year I'm not disappointed in the fantastic weather, the early evening sunsets and the spider webs. Yes, the spider webs. You know who you are and how many times you've hit my upper lip/face while running/hiking on the trails. How I love the outdoors, but oh how I loathe the webs that grow across my trails.
This week will be a busy one. International Walk to School is on Wednesday (along with my b-day), and Thursday and Friday I'm gone to Encyclomedia downtown (great times at a librarians dream conference). Will be a quick week, and a great one.
Because we have so many students who live too far away to walk to school, and we cannot organize a Walk To School event without permission slips and such (stupid IMO), some students will walk from the church to the school to make it count. All students who walk or ride their bikes to school on Wednesday will get their name entered into a drawing for some cool prizes (drawstring backpacks and blinky lights). I hope we have a good turnout!
The 24 hour race is looming in the near future. 3 weeks to the big day. I'm so tired of the long training days and so ready to get my game on. Did 14 miles this weekend. My body should have done more, but I don't think my mind would have allowed it. We already fought it out just to get that many miles in. I *LOVE* the trails at Bluff Creek, but after months of making the same loop, I'm about to tire of it. At least the season is changing and the trail looks different with the leaves changing color and falling off the trees. Makes the trail look totally different!
Have a great week!
