A Holiday Ultimatum

No, this post is not about running. My running is going along just fine. But over the past month and a half my focus has been placed on the run to the Stanley Cup Finals by my team, the Pittsburgh Penguins. A horrific display in game 1 on Saturday night has them in a must win situation for game 2 tonight. It truly is either going to be the start of the series or the end. A loss tonight will seal the Penguins fate even though there will be those who would say there are still five games left and it's not over. Please, no way the Pens beat the Red Wings 4 out of 5 if they lose tonight.

As for running, I continue to trudge toward my next marathon which is yet to be determined. I've got some ideas and plan on running a fall marathon for sure. But I'm in no rush to decide on this one. I run better in the fall and with gas prices climbing through the summer I will play wait and see. No sense in rushing to conclusions. I'll continue to train this summer with the intention of running a marathon in October or November and for now, that's enough.

Let's Go Pens.
