Ran my first 10K (6.2 mi) race this morning at the ConocoPhilips Rodeo Run. The weather was cold and wet, but the race itself was fun thanks to my race buddy, JP. Highlights:

• JP rubbing the bus driver’s hat for good luck.
• The girls running in the jeans with the butts cut out.
• Running the “viaduct” (aka, the bridge over the bayou).
• Watching senior citizens pass us by.
• The female runner making the XXX-rated groans and moans.
• The kazoo band after mile 4.
• Losing feeling in my hands from the cold.
• Seeing & waving at AO near the finish line.
• Booking it at mile 6.175.
• Needing help untying my shoe because my hands were too numb to remove the race chip.
• The free goodies at the post-race party.
• Sitting in my car with the heater turned on full blast. ahhh.

Afterwards, a bunch of us went to Farrago’s in Midtown for brunch. The White Chocolate Bread Pudding with Golden Raisins was super excellent.
