Saturday and Sunday in bandera

I could go on and on but instead I'll just make it brief and just
upload some videos and photos over the next few days.
I could go on and on but instead I'll just make it brief and just
upload some videos and photos over the next few days. Overall I had
a ton of fun, even tho many of these things sound negative:
- maybe a few too many beers on Friday learning how to ride a unicycle
along with the tall bike, office olympics, Jewish Christmas games and
slowbike 2009 world championships.
- 6.5 hours of trail running in Bandera on Saturday.
- very sticky mud, made shoes feel very heavy, and running quite tough
for 1/2 the time.
- nice fall slipping of a mud ledge and scraping up my arms, and legs
landing in a thorny vine bush.
- got confused on direction of trail.
- great hill time.
- ran two inside loops for good measure after getting lost the first
time for over 2 miles.
- ran through plenty of cactus garden and got torn up legs again.
Incidentally, I love how the teeth feel
When they cut into your legs!
- didn't nutritionate correctly for the low temps and extra effort
required with all the sticky, heavy mud.
- ate plenty after the run.
- drank plenty of beer after the run.
- slept like a champ in John and Julia's RV!! Luv you guys!
- ran another 2.5 hours on Sunday.
- got lost yet again.
- found my way again.
- ran repeats up sky island to make up for yesterday's inability to
get the distance I hoped for.

- was last one back to the lodge running my miles of picking up
markers so I walked around in my boxers outside after my hot shower!
Ha!
