No turning back now

It's official: I'm all signed up to run the Twin Cities 10 Mile on Oct. 3rd. WooHoo?

It's not that I'm dreading the race, it's that I haven't even started training and it's a little more than a month away. How did I let myself slack? I've been running pretty frequently and can do about 6 miles now but I'm on no kind of a training program. So I'm a bit nervous.

To add to the nerves: the race is a competition. Yeah yeah...all races are competitions. But this one seriously is! I've signed up to be on a Media Team through my magazine and we're running vs. the Star Tribune and a few other media outlets. So my time will actually count. EEK! We've won the race the past few years, so the pressure is on!

Other than that, it's almost the weekend! I have another busy one.

Tonight one of my BFFs Nick is hosting an art gallery opening at Aloft. Should be fun! And then tomorrow I am playing an early-morning make-up tennis game and working in the afternoon. Tomorrow evening I'm headed home to hit the town for my friend Emily's birthday party. Then Sunday morning I'm playing MORE tennis with my mom and am going to a work party. All in all, packed weekend! I'll update y'all on Monday!

Have a good one!
