Hi Gang It's only noon and I'm tired already.

No exercise yesterday as we worked until 3 then attended our sons college graduation for 3 hours

then celebratory dinner out.

Only managed about 3 hours of sleep last night and hubby was up at 5 am because he  had to be

at work for 6 this morning and I wasn't into that crap   so I left home at 7:30am and biked into the city,

15 miles. Dodging the traffic with no sidewalks, very few shoulders, no bike lanes and inattentive drivers

is a tad stressful. 

2000 yards in the lake after work today and 90 km on the bike with hubby and a group of friends tomorrow.

Supposed to be a spectacular weekend here. Haven't had an entire weekend of sunshine in a long time. 

Plus Canada Day is Tuesday and my boss surprised be yesterday by cancelling class on Monday and

giving me the day off with pay. 4 day weekend! Woot!!! Awesome boss! Woot!!!

Okay I have seen it all!  I just drove by a guy holding a pooper-scooper underneath his dog while said dog took a crap in it.

I have just one question for him; WHAT IN THE FUCK WAS THAT?!

Saving time?  LOL.

Sigh, I just inputted my hours for this week.  65 hours of work this week, not even counting travel the two days.

saw a helluva pitcher's duel last nite between josh beckett and adam wainwright. zeros across the board thru eight innings. final score was one to zero...sounds like a soccer score. 5.5 miles this morning....have a great weekend everyone!

Ran my first track workout today.  Here is the lowdown:

-2 mile warm up

-4 x 400m at 6:45 pace (thereabouts)

-200m recoveries at 7:25 pace

-two minute rest followed by 1 mile jog (getting tired)

-2 x 400m at 6:45 pace with 200m recovery in the middle

-2 mile cool down

7.3 miles at 7:49 pace for the run.

Not bad for my first try.  A little slower than I'd like, but I have not done any speedwork recently nor did I really know what to expect today.  5K PR pace is 6:35 and I know I am not there right now.  I look forward to seeing what a bunch of these workouts will do for my speed.   Sunny and 85 degrees today.  I could see the heat coming off the track when I stepped on it.

Chick at the store while I am minding my own business studying two bottles of wine in the aisle,

"Sir may I help you with your wine selection tonight?"

"Uh, I guess, sure.  Which of these selections do you think is better, the Coppala Cabernet or the Diseno Malbec?"

"Sorry sir but I don't know, I only drink white wine"
