Well, in my running world, I'm thanking circumstances that be right about now...

I was going to go run the Stinson Beach (California) 50k yesterday (Saturday) with a friend, but she had to bail and I didn't want to train and travel by myself, so I opted out in favor of the Woodside 50k Dec 1.

The Stinson Beach 50k was cancelled Friday afternoon at 4:30 due to the oil spill (the Park Service cancelled the event). We would have already been on a plane or even on the ground.

I'm hoping this is a good omen for the Dec 1 event. I ran 24 Friday and mtn biked 15 Saturday (instead of running 10... ) and feel astoundingly good. I think the extra 2 weeks of training will end up being a bonus.
