42 Days - Rainy Run

Sunday, March 8th - 42 Days to Marathon Monday
Temp at Start - 55 degrees (and very rainy!!)
Distance - 14 miles
Amount Raised: $5,855 out of $9,500 goal

The weekend conference was finally over and I had 5 hours until my flight back home. And it was 55 degrees which is a perfect temp for running. But it was pouring rain. A torrential downpour. Ugh. Oh well, fortunately I have a coworker who runs marathons and he was my inspiration to zip up my raincoat and get out there for the long run anyways. We ran all around Houston, through memorial park and through the awesome River Oaks neighborhood. We even stumbled upon George Bush Senior's Houston home (see pic below)!! I have blisters all over my feet from wet shoes and socks and my joints ache more than usual from the rain, but at least we got the run in and it wasn't freezing cold!
