Dammit.
So, remember when I was all happy that I booked my St
Augustine 10k? Remember how I booked
that Veteran’s Day 5k for the weekend before?
I did it again…
In Gainesville, home of the University of Florida Gators, we
have something called a Gator Gallop- it’s a 2-mile “Fun Run” that runs before
the Homecoming Parade. A few years ago, when I was laid off (2009), I took my
daughter to see the Homecoming Parade (something I normally couldn’t do since I
was at work). I saw the people running
down the street and half cynically, half sarcastically, half truly said “I’m
gonna do that one year.”
Guess which weekend our homecoming is? Oh, it’s so hard, but just try to guess….
Friday, November 9th.
I did actually debate this for a while. I could skip it this year and do it next
year. It’s not going anywhere, they’ll do it again. But, then I reminded myself that I promised
myself that one day, I’d do it. If I didn’t do it now, I probably wouldn’t do
it next year.
I signed up for it….
Here’s how my November looks:
Friday, November 9th – Gator Gallop – 2 miles
Saturday, November 10th – Annual Passholder New
Fantasyland Preview
Monday, November 12th – Gainesville Fisher House
5k
Saturday, November 17th – St Augustine 10k
Holy crap! I’m either really stupid, or really confident
that I can do this…..
We’ll see what happens.
