Has it really been 2 weeks since I last posted? In my defense, I have been crazy busy with work, running, life and most importantly, getting the Ragnar team together. And we are so close! To be honest, when I first looked at putting a team together, I thought it would be difficult to get people to commit. Just the opposite. Within days, I had 17 people (for 12 openings) interested in the race. I figured the fairest way to do it was first to pay was on the team. That, and some serious peer pressure, worked. The team is almost complete, and I can't wait to announce the superstar line-up.
I actually have one slot open. To be honest, I have a certain person in mind to round out the team. I won't name names, but just so she is aware, I really hope she says yes.
Switching topics, my running is going well. I feel good during my speed workouts and I am getting ready to start increasing my long run miles in prep for my half marathon training. I have set a goal for this half that I don't think I will be able to hit, but I will certainly try.
I was in Boston this week and got to have dinner with Middle of the Pack Girl, Terri. That was the one bright spot of an otherwise stressful business trip. Next time, we run. Oh, and that is looking to be sooner than I originally thought. I could be back in a month, so be ready, Terri!
