The two biggest fears I had this morning after breaking my beer fast last night were what would my blood sugar be and how would I do in the Danny Gans Run for the Rainforest?
My first fear was quenched when the bs registered 126. That's pretty amazing after 5 beers, a foot-long Subway Veggie Delight with all that bread and a couple of bowls full of pretzels. The 2nd fear was equally dashed when I finished the 5k in 23:30, my fastest time (by 15 seconds) in 7 years. That pace of 7:34 per mile was good enough for 2nd place in my age group and 54th overall out of a field of more than 1,200 runners.
The beer didn't hurt me but now it's back on the shelf until Sept. 13, 2006, unless I come across another surprise journal entry.
