Quick, over and done

Run: 3 miles @ 7.3 mph + 4 strides

I got a little surprise in the mail today. Although I'm not much of a "picture" guy, and don't own a camera, I ordered some of the race pics from ASI Photo from Muskoka 70.3. One is a finish line shot, that I'll probably put on my desk at work, the other is a finisher's certificate that I'll put up on my "look at me" wall. (I'm really not trying to brag about all this. Whenever I talk about the result, I feel like I'm talking about someone else that I'm proud of, because it couldn't be me that did it.) The picture that's part of the finisher's certificate is me cresting a hill on the run course, running straight into the camera. You can't really see my face because I'm looking down and it's shaded by the cap, but you can see the rain pelting down. It's a pretty hardcore shot, if I do say so myself. The other photo ... not so much. When I hit the tape, I had my arms raised in victory, a big smile, and was giving a big Texas Tech "Guns up!" This photo was taken right after that. I'm staring blankly into space, and my arms have fallen into a pose that resembles a Tyrannosaurus Rex. It's definitely not my best look.
