Rave: Nike Run Hit Wonder 5k
10 to the 110 transition was a mess...had to jump off around Hoover. They closed most of the streets and followed a few cars to find my way to campus. Sat and sat trying to get into parking. Made it into parking and then circled around the place trying to find the VIP area. Every person I asked gave me accurate yet completely confusing directions. Finally found the place, finally found my friends, finally made it over to starting line. Caught the end of the Donna's playing. Dig them.
The MC's just keep talking and talking. Kathy Griffin is funny but not today. Someboy please just start the run. The run started about a half an hour late and I would have taken my own life listening to those MC's any longer.
And off we went...I ran as far as I could and then walked. Damn there are alot of people. Hey watch it. You have the whole street why do you need my little section of sidewalk. More importantly, why do girls wear those shorts with the writing on the butts? I had to get arond that...jog some more. Huh, white kids trying to hip hop. That's pretty amusing.
Running down greek row, passing frat boys offering beer bongs, passing a few girls who took them up on the offer. I really miss college at times like this. Does that really say 12:36? I'm doing 13 minute miles? Weehoo! Passed the first musical act? Is that Chingy? Who the hell is he anyways. Whatever, what a pretty campus. I can't believe I've never been around here. Fountains of Wayne. Oh yeah, that Staci's mom song. Cool. Damn, 26:45. I'm *still* doing 13 minutes? Why are there police sirens. The other side of the street is completely emply. They can just drive on the other side. OH, its the 10k guy...he's doing a 10k in 30 minutes. That's amazing. Is that the Aquabats? I was hoping they'd be on my route. Japanese Drummers...they're really good. DJ Z trip? This is just getting better.
They're right. There's nothing better than running through the tunnel of the Colliseum. That was amazing. My chest was about to explode but damn it, I did it in 39 minutes. 39:46ish, but damn it, still 39.
VIP area was cool. They need to reorganize the bag check but the food was good, the area was right next to stage, very nice.
All in all, it was definate worth the trouble. Going back next year.
