I was whining talking to HZ on the phone today as I walking towards my beach path in preparation for my workout.

As I got to the top of the stairs of the retaining wall I saw:

Yes, that’s a race (or the tail end of it).

My first thought?

There is a race here and I missed it? Yes, I actually sounded SAD about this. How weird is that? I have lived near here for several years and usually races mean too much street traffic and lots of noise.

Then I reached the bottom of the steps and was passed by the last of the straggling walkers. All were wearing bibs BUT

None of them were wearing timing chips. So that means whatever it was it was a fun run and not timed.

Is it still healthy? Yes.

Did I still clap and cheer for the stragglers? Totally

But I realized no timing chip meant there were no medals. *insert look of horror*

Screw that! Run for FUN? Not bloody likely!

At least I’m honest about my golddigging tendencies, right?

Side note: I have no idea what race it was.

Side note 2: My medal still has not arrived from China. I’m hoping when it gets here it isn’t covered in lead or toxic causing me to look like this radioactive mutant fish from one of my favorte TV shows EVER.

If it turns out to be toxic I’m keeping it, I’m just not sleeping with it around my neck until the Disney half marathon as previously planned.
