When you write one of the most dramatic scenes in your book to Imagine the Fire from The Dark Knight Rises...

Trying to figure out how to get my main characters to infiltrate a super secure evil bad-guy city in a unique and cool way that doesn't make it too easy.

3rd place, could have done better. Lost around 3 minutes (which would have saved me 30 OT points) running around like a headless chicken after I lost contact with the map going to the second control. Then selected the wrong answer on #7 because the correct lights weren't lit, control circle was off center, and there was a GIANT Merry Christmas sign right there. oh well. Also made the mistake of being impatient and getting 17, 301, and 20 in probably the worst order possible... hehe. Also having a race partner who could call out the street addresses would have been pretty nice (then again I'd pity them because of all the unnecessary distance I accumulated)... Also also, one of the toughest things on this course was not bowling people over; there were SO MANY people out seeing the Christmas lights who witnessed an oddly dressed bozo with a headlamp going 9 miles per hour almost knock them over. What can I say, that's one way to get into the Christmas spirit...

Other than my mistakes, though, this course was really fun. Almost forgot how much fun it is to just send it in some nice, flat terrain (probably because I don't have any of that around my house...).

Christmas break is here at last! It's about time; I can finally spend some more time writing my novel. Listening to the Dark Knight and Dark Knight Rises soundtracks while writing and alternating with NF.

Saw Wile E. Coyote on route in Don Castro. Running to the Batman v Superman soundtrack, probably the best thing to come out of that movie to be honest...

Quick rainy run solo. Returns by NF.

No run after work today, just a walk with Sophie; those Rhetorical Analysis essays ain't gonna write themselves...
