Well, the bride is back this afternoon so my single parent experiment is over.

I may have crazy work over the weekend, or not so much.

Hoping for two short runs today to test the adjusted orthotics and some different shoes.

QOTD: Weekend? Depending on work, hope to get at least one longish run in (not LB2 style, to be clear) of 3+ hours and some killer biking in. Oh, and chill with the boys and the bride as much as possible.

Started my new temporary gig this week so only a couple good runs as I try to get used to a more structured existence again. In spite of my schedule the runs were at least good quality with trail intervals and some road pace work. I'll have to work out a routine of some sort going forward. The job seems ok though I much prefer not working.  Because they are still gearing up for the season some of us that just got hired are getting staggered days off and lucky me as I get Monday off. I like that. Now I am just waiting for DW to get home and we'll be spending a 3 day weekend at the shack.

QOTD--As mentioned a long wknd up north. I'm expecting fall color to be nearing peak around my place so that should be good. There will be a solid mix of grouse hunting, mtn. biking, some great trail running, a little canoeing, and some lumberjack stuff. Pretty complete plus it looks to be beautiful weatherwise.  Oh yeah--maybe some fall musky fishing, campfires, and a little seasonal ale too.

Did 7 mi this morning. A pretty good run, but stayed on the flat river path.  Took a little detour to swing by and look into the window of a little furniture shop we've been wanting to drop in to.  Kinda cool.

qotd: this weekend the Busan International Film Festival started and we bought tickets for a few obscure films.  Last night we went to a 3 hr documentary on Jackson Heights, NY. It was ok in spots, but there were also torturous parts covering local community meetings, very repetitive too. We're going to see some Korean, Indian and Australian movies over the next few days.

yay! Mandy.  Stop being such a stranger.  Foot feeling any better?

 

OBMedic - not sure you saw my post the other day but I live in Camp Hill, probably close to where you used to live or maybe parents still live.  Drop me a line when you're back again, if I have the time I will hit the trails with you.

 

blarg - thanks for sharing the cider press....cool stuff!

Yeah sorry I totally missed that, my bad. I actually grew up in Mechanicsburg. I used to run the AT, Darlington, and Pinchot a lot. I'll definitely let you know next time I'm up this way and have a little more time.
