I leave on Friday for my annual girls weekend in Dewey Beach and could not be more ready (hence updating my blog in the middle of a work day!) I can't seem to stop thinking about what flavor jello I'm going to buy for the jello shots and if vodka would be better or perhaps tequila would work for the lime jello... hmmm...
Every year, the weekend after Labor Day, The Bottle and Cork (a bar in Dewey Beach, DE) puts on a 5K and a 10 miler. This will be my 3rd year attending, but my friends have been going now for about 10 years. This weekend attracts a ton of people to the beach and it is the last big party/bar weekend for Dewey. I didn't run last year, but I did in '06 and thanks to the internet, was just able to find my time. I was actually shocked when I saw how fast (for me, I'm a slow runner) I actually ran the 5K in. I averaged an 11min 19sec mile and completed the race in 35min 5sec. I thought I did much worse than this, but then again I was a very young 28 back then. I was hoping for an 11m 30s mile this year in hopes I'd beat my time from 2 years ago, but I think I'll just aim to finish the race.
We've got about 16 women (most of us married, many with kids) who are all more than ready to have an awesome time. Keep your fingers crossed the weather is nice for us!
