Out Run CF Day

Junked up on adrenaline even though I was only running in a one person race I twitched through the morning...9:55am, five minutes until race time and no sign of Mom and Cooper. Cooper had spent the night at Mom's house and they were coming to cheer me on. Of course the phone rings and it's never 'normal' here. Mom and Cooper had been at a full stop waiting to turn left into one of our roads and they were rear-ended. Mom's car at stand-still, other car going around 25-30mph. Pause plans...

Police, fire truck, clean-up, tow, Mom off to ER for Xrays (very scary as she has a rod & tons of hardware put in her neck and the possibility of major problems very real).

Race delayed one hour. Cheered out, cheered at 2.7, cheered at end. My own finish line tape to cross. Done. Carried along on adrenaline. No knee twinges, not as much lungs as normal. Guess it suits the race.

Would do it 100 times if it meant I could take away Trevor's disease. I hope he knows this.
