Athletic Challenge Email From My Wife
by Chris Harvey on 03/03/08
This morning, my wife, sends me an email that says:
Would you be down for running 6.2 miles with me on March 15th? That means you only have 2 weeks to train….do you think you can do it? I would like to do it but I don’t want to do it by myself. The papajohn’s 10 miler is on the 29th of this month, I would also like to run this one but we’ll see how it goes. Let me know what you think.
Love you,
AH
Talk about last minute. There are three races in Louisville coming up that are called the Triple Crown. A few years ago we trained and ran two of the three races. Well, this year, and actually just last night, my wife sees a commercial for the first race and now wants to run.
I have been playing basketball and working out more than I have in a long time, while in school, but this will be a challenge. However, I love challenges and I love running with my wife. Running is something that we can do, athletically, together. So, honey, I’m down.
I guess it’s time to go out and run or something.

Yey! Thanks babe, I knew I could count on you.
I guess that means we better start training….oh and also ordering that arm band!

Dang, ya’ll are crazy to run that distance with so little training time. Better get with it. I wanted to start running once we moved, but I’ve been so busy that I haven’t thought about it.

Do you get pizza afterwards? Papa John’s?
Cool guys.

Yea, for the Papajohns ten miler they actually do have pizza after the race…but the last thing I want to do is eat a piece of pizza right after I finish running 1o miles! Yuck! I love pizza and all just not right then and there.
Jer, I’ve been training…kinda, sorta….I knew the tripple crown time was coming up so I’ve been running pretty faithfully since the beginning of the year. I was sick for a while so that didn’t help…but I’m back!

I’ll be there the week of April 14th. Don’t think I’ll be up for a run, but, I might walk for a pizza!
