Garmin Fenix 3 HR !!! And so much more!  That's just a very small portion of what all has been going on this past month. Life is good!  Having a great time at the Lake Sammamish Half ! Perfect weather and perfect run! I started off this race thinking that I would run an easy 11:30 the whole time in preparation for the Hot Chocolate 15k the next day, that didn't last long. The weather was too nice to waste! I split off from the pacers and just had fun :D 11:30 Pacer for the Hot Chocolate 15k Seattle with Beast Pacing ! I had an amazing op...

Pacing Fail

In my last post I announced really awesome news that I was to be a race pacer for the Wenatchee Half Marathon. Unfortunately this did not come to pass, there were some difficulties in trying to find enough volunteers to be pacers. Because there wasn't enough volunteers they had to cancel the pacing part of the race. I had already paid for my hotel room for the race and as compensation for my efforts I was given free race entry. So I trekked over to Wenatchee and had a really great experience, despite the hiccup.  I arrived in Wenatchee the day before the race to go to the race expo. Which I am really glad I did because my entry, along with two of my fellow runners in the Seattle Green Lake Running Groups, registrations were wrong. So I switched them over and enjoyed the expo.

I have been sicker than I have been in a long time and it's so not cool. All thanks to allergies. They hit me like a ton of bricks every spring but this year especially hard. I haven't hardly run in over two weeks! It's making me a bit worried. I have my first half marathon in less than two weeks that I am pacing! I am so excited and terribly nervous as well. I am so worried that I'll mess up and ruin everyone's race. I wouldn't know what to do with myself if I did that!  I will be pacing through Beast Pacing  and I will be pacing in the Wenatchee Half Marathon . A beautiful location near the mountains and along the Columbia River. I am really looking forward to this run. I also have officially just been name an Elite Ambassador for The Color Run Seattle ! I can't even believe that I was chosen! If you haven't run in a Color Run I highly recommend it, it is just a huge party the whole time. Awesome people, blasting music and of course a Color Explos...
