Hello everybody!
That is a great picture, Holly. Great looking couple.
Well...another fun day at the old homestead. Eric had a couple of "friends" stop by his house last night. Long story short--one of them made Eric mad--Eric, now has 4 broken bones in his face and had to have his nose put back in place. He will see a plastic surgeon on Tuesday. The fun never stops.
On a more positive note--after I left the E.R., I met my nephew, whose father just passed away a couple weeks ago, for dinner and a couple of drinks. We had a really nice time. That kid (41 years old) is a carbon copy of his dad.
I also managed to get in 8 miles, today.
Okay--gotta go rest up for tomorrow--who knows what that will bring. See ya!
Sorry to hear that, Mike. He sure keeps you on the edge of your seat, as it were.
From my running log:
21.43 miles. Probably actually ran .2 more than this, but Garmin "lost" that much in the early trail miles, and mile 10 with all the switchbacks. Oh well, that's fine, it was a good training run but so much walking! I could tell by mile 3 that this was going to be a tough day. I guess I paid for that good run yesterday. But, absolutely no stopping the Garmin! Very proud of myself for that. I stopped just briefly to retrieve my drink and gel at mile 7.3 and just before the power line off Henderson. Probably needed more, and some S caps for sure. Had some mild cramping but not too bad, but then again I didn't do the out-and-back. These are the actual miles through 12, then off because I just went down Chute and back but did the full course through mile 26.2. Here's hoping taper and some rest will do the trick to have a better performance for the actual event.
A moose jumped out in front of me about halfway down the chute, surprised the bejeezus out of me! Had me yelling "Hello!" for the next several hundred feet.
