Patriot Half in the books
Yesterday was the 2nd running of The Patriot Half Marathon and 5K Race for Nate. I ran the half, using the word 'ran' liberally. I've been having some knee issues, so.......my time wasn't very good. The course was a little different than last year. It went though more of the residential areas of Rockwall that are hilly. The run was fun from start to end, but did I mention the hills? The weather was overcast and windy most of the run. The wind felt good as long as you weren't trying to run into it. I think by the time I hit the hills at mile 7, I did say there were hills right, I was pooped. I wanted to walk the rest of the way, but the runners around me and the spectators wouldn't let me walk for long. Around mile 10 I caught a second wind and starting running a little more. I caught up to a group of runners who had constantly stayed ahead of me. That made me fell a little better about my race, but I knew my time would suck. My iPhone died right after I passed mile 11. Going the last few miles without music helped, but I wouldn't want to run the entire way without anything. I'm not sure of my exact finish time, but it was around 2:56, not good at all, slower than my slowest time by over 10 minutes. Even with the slow time, I still loved it. The race it produced by the Rockwall Running Center, who did a fantastic job from start to finish. Registration for the 2014 run is supposed to open today. If it does, I'll be signed up.

Spring football
Terrell wrapped up their spring practice with a scrimmage last night. I think it was just enough football to hold me over till 7 on 7 starts. This year Terrell will have a team playing in the North Forney league starting on June 4th.
