4 days in Charlotte
Thank god for Billy Shue. Such a trusty little running buddy while I was in Charlotte for a 4-day heads-down-no-windows-only-laptop-screens kind of meeting for work. This trip to the Queen City was a bit different than ones in the past in that I basically only saw John, Aaron and Billy because I was exhausted from work and also because no one seemed to be running from the Dowd except for Billy. I didn't mind though. Instead of seeing tons of people at a brewery and not getting to spend any quality time going below the surface in conversation, I was able to spend really focused time with some of my dearest friends.
After 4 days of fun in CLT, I headed back to California with hopes of hearing good news via email from my attorney, saying that I was divorced! The one year separation mark came and went, but I was foolishly ignorant and assumed that everything would be done on that day. It doesn't work that way. Quite honestly, I don't even know at this point when the divorce will be finalized, but ultimately it doesn't change how I'm already living. The only thing it will change is the last name on my work email, which is ABSOLUTELY annoying the crap out of me. Other than that, I get to go about my day-to-day as though I'm Caitlin Chrisman.
Anyways, back to my return to Mountain View. California welcomed me with it's typical perfect weather and I immediately jumped right back into my routine with my running buddies, with a Saturday community run at Whole Foods and a long run field trip (thanks to Tom for chauffeuring me) at Sawyer Camp. Overall, I was really pleased with the workouts this week and am looking forward to finally getting a race under my belt!
