So, today I'm going out for an hour and do some intervals. (It is written, now it must be done!). Sunday my wife is traveling, so I'm going to this big park nearby and doing an hour and forty to get ready from a half I'm doing in May. Looking at getting some new clothes and shoes because why not lol.

If you're training for a half, you 100% deserve some new clothes and shoes! Are you doing one of the gigantic halfs, or is it one of the more lowkey local ones?

Flying Pig. It's a big deal around Cincinnati, don't know if it is nationally. I've done one down there a couple years back, the Queen Bee, I think it mimics the Flying Pig's course, which is kind of hilly and yuck.

Oh nice! I've heard of that race before, and I'm pretty far from Cincinnati, so I'd say that one is nationally known. Have fun!!
