The DNS That Shouldn't Have Happened
from The Stubborn Tortoise Hosted by Donna Pazdera
I missed going to Habanero Hundred last weekend because two Interstates were closed and traffic was being funneled onto service roads, creating a ridiculous backlog of traffic. I was already cutting it close to arriving on time -- my theory is I didn't want to get there too early and then be stuck hanging around in the heat. When it became clear I would miss the start by over 30 minutes and maybe an hour, I turned around and went home. In retrospect, it might have been fate sparing me a DNF because people were dropping out of the race because of the extreme heat. As it was, seven people didn't finish the 10K, so that tells you something. In other news, I picked up a new phrase that describes what I do: Hogging. It's a combination of hiking and jogging. I rather like it.
