predictable 
I am so predictable. So, for Hippie Chick, you can pick up your packet today, tomorrow or before the race. I thought about going over there at 10 when they opened. VJ, calm down, calm down already. So showing incredible restraint, I left at work at 1, got stuck with a bridge up, etc.
I went in armed with my psedonym (hi, I'm Lori, I'm 43, and I run an 8 minute mile), but Hollie was in, working for the organizer, and she totally blew my cover. It's just as well—nobody is going to look at me and think an 8 minute mile is plausible. And, the results will be under my name which is good, because at some point in the future I'd look for my results and freak right out not finding my name.
After a disappointing lunch, I'm back at work. Hydrating like a maniac. Working like a maniac. Hoping to get enough done so I won't have to bring work home. But I'm feeling a bit lighter.

hahaha, had i known i was blowing your cover, i wouldn't have greeted you with a jovial and noisy, "HEY VJ!"
i'm so glad you found an entry into this race. one of the other chicks working that table with me today muttered something about how there's a waiting list some 175 women deep. assuming the weather doesn't suck, it should be a wonderful day. :)
see you and the scoot tomorrow!
