We don't have the Internet at home, and I've been doing "work" at work lately, so I've neglected to post anything on the ol' blog. A big "I'm sorry" to the two or three people who actually read it.
Next weekend is the Outer Banks Marathon followed by the Richmond Marathon on the fifteenth. The old Molly would be longing to participate in one, beating herself up for "taking it too easy" or not "committing to a goal". The new Molly, however, is enjoying "taking it too easy", which in my case means still working out six days a week. Now I'm just doing it for the fun of it, varying my workouts and sports, and listening to my body. It's taken me 24+ years to learn how to relax, and I'm not quite there, but at least I'm making progress.
The other big news is that it's Election Day, and while this doesn't mean a lot for the running part of my life directly, one could argue that the future president will have an indirect effect on all of our workouts. For example, a better energy policy (better = greener) means cleaner air and water, two essentials for athletes. Also, ending the wars abroad means having more money to spend improving infrastructure at home. Better roads, sidewalks, and bike trails lead to a more pleasant running experience.
Go Obama!
