Is That A Shillelagh In Your Pocket Or Are You Just Happy To See Me?

Sunday is the Shamrock 1/2 marathon in Virginia Beach. The last three miles of the race are on Atlantic Avenue, which has numbered cross streets...so we'll know exactly how long we have left in the race as we go from 89th to 31st streets.

The course is a lot flatter than the one on which we trained...and the weather is still supposed to be on the cool side, with maybe a little rain. Amanda and I are ready...nervous, but ready. If all stars are in alignment and we both have a good run that day, there may still be a chance that we make our goal time of 2:10. Wish us the luck of the Irish!

Oh sure--put our goal time out there. Now we're on the hook with your WHOLE ENTIRE FAN CLUB. How will I ever show my face to...myself and Jeff Cockey?
And...who knew that was how you spelled Sha-lay-lee? Those crazy Irish.
