Reliving One Million Inches

January 16, 2011 · general

I got an e-mail recently about an upcoming race. It reminded me of this:

Zoë, me, Mel and Amanda looking happy before the Million Inch+ Run – Feb. 2010.
Picture of me dying by Zoë.

It was a great run and a gawd-awful run. Let’s reminisce, shall we?

Zoë and I gave a ride to a banana man. Then I started off the 16+-mile run by swallowing a bug. A crazy unibomber guy rode past me on a bike. I smiled at a man in hopes he would change his mind and not commit suicide. I was so far behind I thought I was first. Some jerko told me I was going the wrong way when I was going the right way. I thought someone was trying to abduct me. I went the wrong way. At last, the search party found me.

It was one of my favorite run recaps last year. And I loved being able to read the girls’ recaps, too. If you haven’t already, check them out. I linked them below.

Okay, and here’s the really scary thing. We are talking about doing it again…

Sometimes the experiences that are the most frustrating at the time give the best memories. 🙂

So fun!!! That brings back some serious memories! Maybe, just maybe I could swing a weekend trip to Seattle???? I will start sweet talking the hubby wubby lovey smoochie-kins….think it will work? =)That was my distance PR! I had never gone further than 13.1! This time around I would be up for the ++++ at the end of 1,000,000 inches!!

It's strange, but that run was soooo tough, yet so rewarding! And since it's an out and back this year, I can see us running at least some of it. I say, let's go for it! Perhaps we'll see banana dude again???
