the Hamptons Marathon
After I ran the San Diego Rock n Roll Marathon last year, it wasn't long until I decided it was time to go for another...this time I chose one on the complete opposite side of the country. In less than two weeks, myself and three friends will be traveling to New York City!! And exactly two weeks from today 2 of us will be running the Hamptons marathon and 2 will be completing the half. We are making a mini vacation out of the event and will stay in the city and take in a broadway show and other NYC sites before traveling up to The Hamptons for our race.
I feel prepared after training all summer long in the heat and humidity. My knees, while aching after about 12 miles, are not suffering from the tendinitis that I had last year. My only concern is the race start time is 8AM, while my body has been used to a start time of 4:45AM for my long runs; it will be interesting to see how that affects me. My goal is to really enjoy this one though and my race plan is as follows: Run the first 20 easy, and then survive the last 6... : )
Pray for our safety while we travel, Pray for the weather on race day (September 27th!), and Pray that God would keep our bodies from injury and any illness before we go. I will update the blog when I get home with a report and pics of our trip!
love,
sarah beth

Football season
Well, my big sister has been bugging me to blog for a month now, but I didn't really have anything exciting to blog about (it's not like I live in Europe or anything...) until this weekend. Sarah provided me with one of the all time greatest topics to talk about: she got me a subscription to see ALL of the UF Gator football games online!!!! I have been looking forward to football season since....well, since the end of last season, basically. I've had a knot of excitement in my stomach for 2 weeks now. Saturdays are my day off and I had been planning to bus into Belfast for the day and walk around the city and go to the movies until I remembered that Florida was playing Hawaii at 5:30 (my time, anyways). I immediately scratched all my plans for the day. At 5:30 I sat down at my computer breathless making all sorts of excited squeals and ooohs of anticipation. I almost died of happiness at kick-off. I LOVE FOOTBALL. The first quarter was fairly disappointing with no score and lots of penalties, but I had faith in my Gators. Things started happening in the second quarter and the third and the fourth until we ended with a blowout of 52-10. I am so excited for this year. Not only do we have Heisman winner Tim Tebow at quarterback, but did you see Jeffrey Demps? My word! That boy can run! And he's not even supposed to be our best receiver. We still have the porcelain doll that is Percy Harvin waiting to heal up (AGAIN) before he goes out and does his crazy-speed thing on the field. Our young defense now has a year of experience and held up against a solid Hawaii throwing game. Oh, and Brandon James- who is MY size- will be out there to run every punt back for a touchdown. It was a little bittersweet doing the Gator chomp alone, but it will make it that much more thrilling for me to do it with 90,000 of my best friends when I visit Gainesville in October for our homecoming game against UK. Well, there's my first Hendley family blog =) Go Gators!!!----Booboo ;)
