It is a downhill course. I have run some hilly races in the past, but this time I will be racing down!

Careful with net downhill courses. LA had one of those and it was fucking hilly.

Docket: I've seen the profile and it looks ok. Two small uphills is all, but yes, I will be careful .

Oh, is Tucson. I don't think you need to worry much about AZ. For some reason, I keep thinking you will be running in CA.
Jack, that was a warning to the course!

Good to see that everyone survived their Thanksgiving feasts! I had lunch with the in-laws yesterday and then went to my parents' house to get theirs ready for a dinner-time showdown. And, now I'm done eating turkey for the year.
30 minutes on the spin bike yesterday morning. 4.76 miles on the TM this afternoon - no where near as speedily as Phil ran his race yesterday.
Have a Pinksational rest of the day!

I don't do the Black Friday thing. I don't like crowded stores, and the idea of waking up early and waiting in line to shop is beyond my comprehension. I did the opposite, I slept late and laid on the couch all day watching TV. I needed a day off-off. No work, no housework, no socializing, no errands, no NOTHING lol. And no running either. SRD today. Raced yesterday, racing tomorrow!!! Unsure how to approach my race tomorrow. I think I'm just gonna start running as fast as I can and see what happens??

I got my 610 last year in a black friday sale for $299 with HRM and it's been a great watch.

Very active Thanksgiving weekend for me!
Wednesday morning: my back procedures for my spinal arthritis.
Wednesday night: Turkey Day party at a friend's house...sausages, turkeys, all kinds of pastries and breads and desserts - including these GREAT brownies made with a touch of peppermint in them, I had 3 - , beer and wine, sodas, water, juices, etc...probably not exactly a smart way to eat the night before my Turkey Trot 5K, but what the heck, it was fun.
Thursday: My Turkey Trot. Report and photos here: http://www.runningahead.com/groups/BF_and_Beyond/forum/aab2c0f9364e4da68d7b4dd0e7ff834a/resume#focus
Friday: Packet Pickup for my next 5K on Saturday, November 30
Saturday: Marine Corps Toys for Tots 5K and then the final season game for our university football team. And pick up my packet for my Sunday 5K.
Sunday: Santa Antonio 5K in which the majority of folks will be running in Santa Suits. Not me, I hate those darn suits cuz they are WOOL and I sweat so much when I run, the suit makes me itch like crazy. So I will be taking the photos. Because I am doing a report for them, the organizers comped me the entry fee, nice!

Is anyone surprised? This happens every year.
I will never shop on this day, but not because I find it heartless to do so, but because I don't want to get trampled to death.
