Hi kids!
5 miles in a cool, foggy, humid glop. With a couple of whoop-ass hills, because I couldn't find the entrance to the greenway. I don't usually go that way, and couldn't remember which of the multitude of sul-de-sacs they ran it through. Oh, well, I'm sure it was good for me.
Off to plant pansies.
You can still say "my better half". 2nd RD in a row. Sort of planned because I knew these would be two tough days to get one in. Yesterday worked a trade show all day, today we are catching a plane to leave town for the weekend. Technically I probably could've had time to run this morning, but would be stressing out the little woman in doing so, so skipping it. Especially since I actually slept fairly well last night, all the way through till 6:30, which feels like noon, and is wonderful. I don't think I have ever had 2 RD's in a row since I started running 6 days, unless injured or recovering.

So which is it?

The woman! Lily likes that one, so it's a keeper
MTA: Unless you were asking Dave?
Of course your legs feel great, you were smart and took a rest day yesterday. I hope the massage gets ride of that groin pain and you can finally look at Saturday with confidence, which is what you deserve. I have 5 or 6 miles at recovery tonight. Last nights's MLR went as expected: not fast, but at an alright effort after Tuesday's intervals. Maybe I will add some short hills in tonight's run.

Actually I'm not sure if trying to stretch that stupid thing is in my best interest or not. I may elect to just leave it alone and focus on the hips and legs. I'll see what my MT thinks when I get there and decide then.
Intervals, long run and hills 'eh? Yep, you're back!
Just don't say 'the wife." Ooooh, that one irks me.

Haha, yes I was asking Dave. First it was better half, then the little woman.
The word hubby irks me.
*delurk*
YES. Me too. It's like fingernails on a chalkboard to me. It's the same number of syllables as husband, and it's only barely shorter to type. What's the point?

Me too! I really dislike that word. It's like a child word or something.
As far as Cy's "the good woman", who the heck wants to be a good woman? We all know bad women have more fun.

I approve.
(And yes. Hard to believe but I know who she was. She was also the inspiration for a delicious little cake around here, but they had to spell it may west. Mmmm... may west cakes....)

What about hub?
Mayhew and Lewand got the boot today.
