Yesterday was Bloomsday, so Scott and I traveled to Pullman and then Spokane to see our friends and run the race. This was my sixth year running, and I am proud of myself for doing as well as I did with next to no training. I wasn't fast by any means, but I ran more than I thought I was going to, and I averaged under a 13:30 mile, which is pretty good for me on a course with elevation change. I ran when I could and walked when I needed to.
Here are my stats for the past 6 years:

- The weather was lovely! 70s and sunny.
- I saw a few great shirts and signs. My favorite, perhaps, was a woman's shirt that read, "Dear God: Please let there be someone behind me to read this." Also, there was a shirt that read, "I thought I said yes to a Bloomsday RUM." And finally, there was a sign that said, There's no time for
