Marathon Multitasking

Brookings, South Dakota, the site of my Birthday Bash and Boston-qualifying marathon back on May 12, was such a beautiful city: when the marathon route kept winding past apartment buildings, I began checking them out as I went by. I had fun fantasizing about a new life in a new place. The weather was perfect, cool and breezy; I'm sure that's always the case. Back at my car in the park near the finish line, I encountered a few bugs. But with the bug population as my sole caution, I was prepared to stay!

Only, I had to return my rental car to Omaha.

Here are some images from my trip.


Welcome--and have some cheap gas!








My fierce-looking Ford Fiesta didn't take much gas, anyway.
