Way to go Dallas!

Anybody know what movie that is from?

Answer:

The Hunt for Red October. Great book, great movie. And for me, a great day in Dallas this week.

For those of you who don't know me, or don't know me too well, here is the scoop.

I got laid off a few months back. The entire division I worked for was canned in one stroke of the pen. I kept somewhat quiet about it. It's kind of like a DNF. But the consequences can be much worse.

But, being an ultra marathoner, I kept focus on the outcome and goal. I reminded myself of one of my ultra rules.

* If things are bad, the will eventually get better

They did. I went to Dallas for a final interview this week, and just received word that I got the job.

AMEN! I am lucky and blessed.

I will still be in the beverage industry, representing a great product.

I was worried for a while that I would end up taking a job working for Steve Quick. Looks like I dodged that bullet.. for now.

This relates to running as I can actually pay for more races this year. Now I just have to figure out how to celebrate (by running a race).

Happy trails
