Carl Cozier had a fun run! You could either run 2 miles or walk 1 or 2 miles. Naturally we all ran the 2 miles. It was a fun run, the name being correct. The course was 95% on trails, trails we take every day when walking or biking home from school.
The only thing is....
RIGHT when the race started....
it started to SNOW!!!
Go figure!
I bought some tickets to win a Kayak, donated by the local warehouse of Johnson Outdoors.
Wish me luck!

Winner!
For some reason over the last couple of years I've had really good luck, I've won numerous drawings that I've entered. In the summer of 2007 I won a drawing for taking an online survey for a local magazine, then I won a book from a local radio station who did a drawing at a community pic-nic, about a month later I won a dinner for two after buying a raffle ticket to support a non-profit organization.
But that's not all, the same year I also won tickets to see a really cool Irish band who was playing locally.
I'm sure there's more, but m0st significantly I just won a drawing for a THREE MONTH FAMILY MEMBERSHIP TO BELLINGHAM ATHLETIC CLUB!!!!!!
or BAC, this couldn't come at a better time. Training for a half marathon requires a lot of hard work and well, running. I don't have the time or the daylight to get a lot of runs in, so having the gym membership will allow me to workout on the treadmill.
Let me just say something about treadmills.
I HATE THEM.
Hate, hate hate them.
I can easily and somewhat happily run 5 miles outside, no problem. But put me on a treadmill and after 5 minutes I want to stop.
Hard work and dedication will help me make my goal of running a half marathon, and if I have to train on a treadmill to reach that goal so be it.
I redeemed my gift certificate, they have two locations, one downtown just a few blocks from my work and one on Meridian, just a few blocks from Jeff's work.
I ran 3 miles on the treadmill, I also rode my bike to meet Suzanne earlier in the day, so got about 4.5 miles of biking in too.
