We've Had Better Ideas

A few months ago it seemed like a great idea: two aspiring runners, an extremely cute named race, and Halloween weekend. So these two little crayons signed ourselves up for the Hobooken 5K and set about both "training" (Kate actually goes to the gym, Rachel contemplates signing up for one) and planning our race costumes.


Fast forward to today, a day before the race - and apparently a nor'easter's headed our way! We've actually had great weather this fall, and the weekends have, for the most part, been beautiful, and even unseasonably warm. How silly we were to think that we would be so lucky for this weekend.

Chances for snow are probably slim - but the alternative - freezing cold rain - does not sound any better. However, we are not quitters - and Rachel has to start training for a half-marathon in just one week - so run we will. Maybe no one else will show up and we'll win the whole damn thing? We do know one thing for sure - the brunch and couch time watching SOAPnet that will follow will be well deserved.
