With no help from the official website, or the race organizers, I finally found the race pictures from the 10k that I ran a week and a half ago. I was really curious since I know that I ran by one of the...one of these? Or will my "stolen" versions be good enough for me. Which reminds me - I need order my marathon pictures - got the final reminder this last week. Good thing payday is Friday.

Today I ran the second Bank To Bay 10k that's held annually (this is its 9th year) in downtown Tacoma. The first time I ran it - back in 2006, it was the third race of my running "career" and I surprised...a faster finish time than my 2006! 2006 Chip Time: 55:32 2008 Chip Time: 53:47 Time difference of 1:45 - I almost chopped two whole minutes off. Now I just have to wait for my race picture . .

The registration "issue" has been fixed - I'm legal now. Did have one problem thought - even thought I had Power of Attorney over April, and a signed release of interest, they told me that I didn't have.... So far this week I have been listening to Nightwish. When I did Hood to Coast in 2007, I ran with Carbon Leaf and Ben Folds (maybe some Five too.) Just not sure what I want to run with tomorrow

Finally did it - no going back: I really wish the race was on Saturday though - that way I could go hiking one day next weekend, but it was not meant to be. Time Goal #1 - Better than 55:32 (my 2006 time) Time Goal #2 - Less than one hour Even if I don't meet my first goal, I will dry my damnedest to meet my second goal.
