I ran an easy 5 miles this morning, about a 9:25 pace. Last back to back runs this weekend, which should give me 102 miles in 8 days, which will be 82 for 7 days. I don't feel as tired as I think I should, but maybe by Sunday I will be beaten down.

RECOMMENDATION: Someone told me about the show "Cunk on Earth" on Netflix. If you like deadpan humor, you need to watch it. The humor sneaks up on you and slaps you in the face. Also, "You" is back for Season 4 (I think it is Season 4). I was wondering where they could possibly take it after the last season, and they surprised me with some interesting twists and turns.

QOTD: Weekend Plans?

B2B runs on Saturday and Sunday. And I think I will run to Home Depot to pick up my annual lawn mower stuff to get things rolling, oil, filters, blades, battery, ect.

I was supposed to get up and do core/ST and a stationary bike ride, but I tell ya, I'm burnt out.  Work is sucking the life out of me right now.  If I could afford to take a leave of absence and I was assured my job would be available upon my return, I'd do it.  Oh well.  I'll probably get some core work done when I get home after work.

QOTD: Same ole, same ole.  Tomorrow a 12-mile trail run, then I need to work on tax stuff.  I just need to decide where I want to run.

Bull Run!! That was an interesting battle. From what I have read, people showed up to watch and had picnics. Then, they realized it was not a picnic friendly environment. I think people are about the same, probably worse, today. They have no concept of reality until it impacts them directly. I'd love to visit that site.

Had to pick u our new dishwasher out in the outburbs of Va so Chowder and I got in 5 miles at the Manassas Battlefield site before the pick up. It was interesting. and more of a dogwog as my legs felt tired, and I was stopping to read the trail signs. Interesting stuff (IMO)-- First Grand Battle of the Civil War. Now we're home and supporting the new installation .

 

 

MT- Chowder is sending his condolences to TE. As you can see, he was not doing anything fun earlier, either. The things dogs put up with to please their humans. 

 

qotd: Nothing terribly exciting. DH took Monday off and we were debating a quick trip to the beach, but the weather forecast looks pretty bad. Streaming 'Homeland' might be the weekend highlight. LB-- I'll have to look up that show.

Hiya All, thanks for the thumbs-up yesterday.  DD and I are planning a trek in Big Bend on something called the Outer Mountain Loop, plus we're going to add a little to take in the South Rim. Looks like it'll be 35 miles. The hardest part was going to be getting the campsite, so we're glad we puled that off.

QoN: nice photos, did you figure out how to post them from the iPhone?

runtrail: nice photos too.

I lounged around the house this morning waiting for a furniture delivery and then I went for a run to the park and back, 11 miles.

qotd: same old stuff. A few runs and then the big choice between napping or doing chores.

I think this is the second day I wrote a daily but failed to hit the post button.   Just a joggy jog with Jack for 2.5 miles.  

wotd:  Volunteering at a Cross Country Ski race, The Vasa.  It's normally a 2 day event but there is just not enough snow to handle so they canceled Sunday.  Saturday a 10ish run on a new trail...the my sister and I are having super bowl party of two.   Stop by if you want.  

Sandy:  Nope pulled out the laptop.   I love taking pictures so may pull out laptop more often.  We have had such a dry spell on sun that when it comes out so dies the camera.
