so get on your feet and drum out that beat

I didn’t #votebybike this time! Instead, knowing we have a race coming up, hyounpark and I jogged the mile-plus up to our local ballot box to drop off our votes. Afterwards, we walked over to PennDel's for post-election treats: an apple strudel for me, a chocolate cookie and necessary caffeination for him. And then we ran home. And I managed to do both of the running legs without a walking interval!

In order to not obsess over what is now out of my hands, I’m focusing on said upcoming race. I don’t think I’m making my original stretch goal of running the entire PG 5k without walking intervals; being sick last week set me back from my PRs in New York. But I think I might be able to do it by Hot Chocolate in January, the first 5k I ever did back at the beginning of this year. And I might even be able to run the entire Cookie Run next month, since it’s slightly shorter than a 5k and it’s likely the temperature will be in the low 40s, maybe even the high 30s.

So I've got a race for cookies and a race for chocolate. H wants to know if there's a race for pizza. (Yes, apparently there is; sadly, we just missed it as it was in Brooklyn in mid-September, and you have to eat the pizza during the run. It looks like there's another one in Hoboken around the same time where the pizza is at the finish line.) I do have the Hotdish Hot Dash on my radar! :D

Also, I am mildly puzzled why the timezone for this reverted to Eastern. Ah well, it gives me something else to think about that isn't *waves hands* alla that.

Yay voting! And running progress!

Voted! Ran! And now a combination of working and distraction cooking and emailing my sopranos to PLEASE look at the conductor, you know the music better than you think you do and he really wants to change the tempo on some of these movements ...
