The Next Race is Holy

If you know anything about me, you know about my love for the University of Notre Dame. As a kid I grew up going to the football games. My idol to this day is Joe Montana. My first half marathon ended on the 50 yard line in Notre Dame Stadium. I'm pretty sure I bleed Blue and Gold.

Next weekend if the Holy Half Marathon and 10K. Originally I was going to do the half marathon, but my body isn't ready for that. Instead I will run the 10K. The race goes through and around the campus. For those who haven't been to Notre Dame, it is a lovely campus. There is a lake, lots of trees, and cool gothic looking buildings. I'm looking forward to running this.

My body is comfortable right now with distances up to 7 miles, so I am good to do this one. I know the half would have been hard for me, and I would have gotten down on myself. So on to South Bend, where I will run with the ghosts of football past.
