Oops!

Ok, I slept through my alarm this morning and missed the race. That's the first time that ever happened to me, but now I am going to buy a new alarm clock since we don't want that happening on marathon day. I woke up and right away I realized that it was much later than it should have been because (a) there was way too much activity outside for it to be 6:30 on a Sunday morning and (b) I felt way too rested. Sure enough my clock said 10:44, more than 4 hours than my first alarm was set to go off (yes, I actually slept through 2 distinct alarms, 1 hour apart). The race started at 8:45 so I was pretty much screwed.

Heading out to do the run by myself, only now instead of cool and wet with teammates and frequent manned water stations, it will be just me alone in the sun and heat. Sigh...
