Day 9... let's run some more

I decided I am to run from my hotel on Shute Road to the Nike Campus in Beaverton, approximately 6miles (10km) from my hotel. Then when I reach the Nike Campus I would do two loops around making my total run about 10miles (16km). Yan Nee, my co-worker was going to meet me at the Nike Campus to run the loops with me and then I will grab a ride back with her. So I was doing a pretty decent pace about 5:20 to 5:30 min/km. The roads were actually not flat, in fact quite a gradient. I died a little doing loops around Nike but was so excited to end because I was getting thirsty and needed water. I finished at around 9.20pm and I did not see Yan Nee's car at all. I was a bit peeved.

So I decided to get out on the main road to search for a grocery store to buy some Gatorade and I figured Yan Nee will see me if I walked on the main road. Even after a 5 minute walk to the grocery store, she was nowhere in sight. So I ran in bought a small bottle of Gatorade, got some change and headed to the payphone to call her hotel. No answer after 3 tries. So I sucked it in and decided to run home. I managed 5km home before Yan Nee pulled up beside me and apologize for waking up late. I hopped in and we went to Noah's Bagel for bagels, juice and coffee. YUM!

Ended the day at the "Bite of Oregon", Oregon's premier food festival and was a bit wasted by drinking too much beer and tasting too much wine. Went home to completely pass out on my bed. Later that night Yan Nee came over with antiacids and mushroom flavoured Cintan mee. I managed to recover a bit. Thanks Yan Nee! Even though you stranded me! :p
