Weekend plans

I will be doing a little bit of work and having fun this weekend. I really don't consider this work, but on Saturday morning I will be photographing the County Cross Country Championships. I have been photographing this event for years and I love it. This race includes all of the county runners. In separate races, the boys and girls run against each other to see who is the best. It doesn't matter if you run for a big or small school, it is about running fast.

Once I'm finished my photo assignment, my husband and I will be heading to Detroit. I will be running the Detroit Free Press Half Marathon for the third time Sunday morning. I would love to go under two hours. I was so close last year. I missed it by three minutes because of coming to a standstill on the Ambassador Bridge a couple of times. I'm not sure if I will go sub-two hours this time around. I ran a personal best in the half back in September, 1:55:18. But I did just run a 50K Saturday. During my runs this week, my legs felt really good. So there is always a chance. If it happens, it happens. If not, I'm not going to be upset about it.

I'm looking forward to the weekend of running. First, photographing high school runners at their best and then me running the streets of Detroit.
