Did Not Start.
I had registered for back-to-back halfs, one on New Year's Eve and the other on New Year's Day. And then I won tickets to my favorite band's concert.
I did the New Year's Eve half and finished with a 2:47. That was hard! It was my first trail half and the hills were killer! My left foot started hurting last week and the pain has been off and on. It didn't hurt the morning of this race. But it sure as hell did about 5 miles in. It stopped hurting later in the day though.
And then we went to the concert in Napa. I also won tickets to the sound check party and the meet and greet, but we couldn't make it to that because of baby-sitting issues. Totally bummed about that. But I still had the best time at the concert. Thanks in part to five beers. Yeah. We didn't get home until about 3 am, where I kicked off my boots and passed out in bed.
I already knew there was no way in hell I'd be able to do the New Year's Day half. It was the same trail course, just running in the opposite direction. I'd like to blame my foot. However, it really was due to my drinking. So hungover this morning.
So, to sum up - hungover, DNS and a jacked up foot. Great way to start the new year. Haha.
