Last year's was, that is. I didn't go this year. Next year I probably will though.
This post brought to you by me noticing I hadn't made a blog post since Extended Bronycon Vacation. I did not go on a year long vacation, as disappointing as that is to report.
Just in case anyone is wondering enough about where my comments are to come looking, I'm on vacation visiting family in the NYC area before Bronycon next weekend. It's kind of unfriendly to sit and read and comment on stuff instead of interacting with the people you flew across the country to visit, so I'll have a limited site presence at best for the next week or so.
This time it was the OKC Memorial Marathon. Last year I did the full and the year before that the 5k, so it only made sense to do the half this year to complete the set, especially since I hadn't even remotely trained up enough this spring to be ready for the full.

Thank you for bringing us a happy little bubble of joy every time "djthomp has commented" appears in the notification box! It means so much to us that you take the time to leave detailed comments, especially given you read so many other stories on top of ours. That's not to say we don't appreciate all of our readers (we do!) but you have consistently gone above and beyond for so long that it seemed wrong to not show our gratitude.
