On the Road

The day is finally here! After talking about, training for, thinking about and planning for The Other Half for the past 6 months, it's finally time to do it. After making sure that every single last one of our co-workers was aware that we are running this race, Bill, Barry and I left the office at about 11:30, and headed north in my car.

We hit a little traffic getting out of Phoenix, but my lead foot helped us make up some time and we hit Flagstaff at about 2:30. After some tasty fish-n-chips and Guinness at Connely's Pub in downtown Flag (and a minor detour when I left my sunglasses in the bar), we headed north again.

We're currently in the middle of nowhere (well, the middle of the Navajo Indian Reservation) with Barry behind the wheel doing a perfectly safe and sane 58 MPH. At this rate, we should be in Moab no later than Saturday.
