4th 50K for 2009

Almost there..to California that is. Can almost smell it. I love that State, so although I do not feel I'm in the best of shape, I should race well. I hope to place top 20 and set a PR (personal record). That should be a 4:45 at this distance, we'll see. My head is together and I'm pumped to be going. No distractions this time around, so I can just focus on the race and nothing else.

Still putting the logistics together but that is always part of the fun in traveling. That and never really knowing how things will go but resting in the fact that it will all turn out. Don't think I'll even make hotel reservations...just go by how I feel. I even meet a guy at the coffee shop today who offered his mothers house a few miles from Santa Cruz..he overheard me talking about my trip with a friend. Come to find out he is from there and in Nashville working on a T.V. show called "SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DUET" At least he gave me a couple of spots to check out while I'm there. So this tells me all should go well!
