Good Morning LB, you are up early on a weekend. Glad your run went well, and the weather seems to be playing along, too.

I am planning on a few miles around the block after breakfast has settled.

I went out to see the movie "Godzilla 2" with one DS and his best friend - the late show. It was fun, until the boys exchanged three short sentences during an action scene (lots of loud noises in the scene, no dialogue to be missed). They had been absolutely quiet up until then, and from their voices one could tell they were kids, just barely old enough to see the movie. A guy sitting in front of us turned around, yelled threats at the boys, shaking his clenched fist toward the boys. So I asked him to talk to me instead of threatening the boys, and he stayed quiet for the rest of the movie. I had intended to say something to him after the show and report him  , but he left the theater very quickly immediately after the last scene, so I let it go. What a jerk.

QOTD: Chores around the house. Having fun with the kids, enjoying the weekend. After yesterday's shooting in Virginia Beach, I am glad I did not go there for a beach vacation weekend with the kids.

One 5K done, so relax the rest of the weekend.  Time was almost a full minute faster than two years ago, the last time they had the race.  Since it's still so early, maybe I'll attempt a double.  I'm not used to finishing my run 5 hours before I normally start.

FTYC - I have a hard time believing or understanding why anyone would do that.  He obviously knew better than to stay around for a confrontation.

Mandy - Hope the climbing goes well and doesn't bother your hip.

qotd: I think I already answered that.

Trying to find a sitter for  Jack so I can join the long run (18) with the group.  So far no luck  have an open house Sunday and DH is out if town so can’t leave him home.

Qotd:  Today more prepping of the house to be ready for tomorrow.  Then maybe a hike with the dogs checking out a trail to add to weekly runs.   Tomorrow I may set off with the group but turn around earlier for Jack...depends on how hot it is.  Suppose to be w@rm.  than do my lobg run on Monday.

Lb:  The streak begins!

ftyc: what a prick!  I went to the movies with my sil and these folks had a baby...maybe 2.  My sil was having such a fit turning around looking at them, heavy sighing, and when the movie was over she went up to them and told them they shouldn’t bring a baby to the movies.  Oh they were  yelling back and forth.  After I told her her behavior during the movie was more disruptive to me than hearing the kid baby talking.  And I said, “while you were busy fretting about the baby, your daughter was video taping (ok I guess it’s not tape anymore) the movie which is illegal.  Got Malia in trouble after that 

Sandy:  Nice listening to your sons band.  How’s Devan,s knee?

George:  a whole minute faster...nice job!!!

Mandy: enjoy your climbing...sorry about the hip....maybe you should replace it...I kniw with knees everyone is happy when they do it.  But I can see where it’s a scary thought.  Especially if you were an average person who dies minimal exercise the hip would be fine.

Late night last night as all 3 kids were home under one roof. Impromptu Jam Session broke out, so of course we couldn't go to bed and miss that.  I was happy, but it was fun to see DW beaming with all her chicks together.

10 mile trail run that turned into an easy run because I kept stubbing my toes.  It's a trail I run often, so I just slowed down to avoid any fall. No time for an injury now.  Been a while since I had a day like that where I seemed to kick so many roots and rocks.

Portland daughter (on right) was craving Old Bay Chips. It's a MD /PA thing.

LB - Day 5, right?

Marie - You go girl. Don't mess with Momma's cubs!

Mandy - Have you ever had your bike "Fitted" for you?  When I had it done, I was surprised how much change it made to ease my lower back soreness and I had ridden for decades before I had a proper fitting.

George - I'd die in a 5K.  Nice job.

Sandy - Always nice seeing the kids play. Glad you got to enjoy his music.

Sue - Do an out and back and leave the group if Jack need to cut it short.

dhuff - Douche Canoe!  That's a new one.

QOTD:  DW has a concert tonight and I was volunteered to usher.  Golf tomorrow morning and a hike and then drive to DC to drop of DD#1.

Queen, great that you lucked out on the dogsitter!

AT: What a wonderful evening! I agree, you don't want to miss that.

"was volunteered" - awesome. 

Sandy: Always great to enjoy the kids' music, especially if it's professional.

dhuff: douche canoe!  BTW, I told the kids to be quiet, but in a nice and calm way. Worked just fine.

wcrunner: I had to smile. Sounds like you need a 5-mile warmup for a 5k race. Funny thing with long distance running is, some people call 26 miles a marathon, for some it's just the warmup.

4 miles in the humid heat, at least if felt that way. NOAA did not agree, but I swear it was way hotter and more humid than their measurements!

I am also dealing with this "cold" that's going around, I had a sore throat for a few days, now a deep cough and I've totally lost my voice. Not sure where this is heading, but I did not want to risk it turning into a pneumonia (I tend to get them this time of year), so I kept the run short and easy. Hope it works, and I'll get my voice back soon.

 

 

Mandy - Have you ever had your bike "Fitted" for you?  When I had it done, I was surprised how much change it made to ease my lower back soreness and I had ridden for decades before I had a proper fitting.

 

Yep.  Multiple professional fittings on different bikes.  The bike feels great aside from my hip.  I can ride 50 miles no problem without any pain anywhere else.  The plan was to build up to longer rides over the summer, but not sure now.  I'm going to rest and see if maybe I can get things to calm down in there.

Great photos of your kids!  Good to put faces to names!  

 

I got nothing else to do, I'm coming over!!

 

Actually I had iced coffee and read for a little while out on my patio today.  It was nice until it started to rain.

cold IPA's in the fridge; sunny and low 70's here
