Good Afternoon, FS Warriors! Just winding down at work, and thought I'd drop in for a journal update. Got up at 3:30 and ran 4.0 miles. It was about 60 degrees and a little breezy, so it was right cool when I started and transitioned to comfortable after about a mile. Felt pretty good considering how sore I was following the weekend.
I have to stop for a haircut appointment between work and home. DW hasn't been feeling good for a couple days - either the flu, or another kidney stone moving. I was cooking last night, so I stopped and picked up fried chicken and a baked potato for each of us at a local restaurant. I'm not counting the baked beans because they were more like pork and beans and I didn't eat them. I forget what her other side was, but she goes nuts with the sour cream and butter. One of the questions I am going to ask God when I get to heaven is if He really meant sour cream for human consumption.
I'm running 1/4 mile repeats in the morning, so I'll have to make sure I get a good warmup, so I don't pull something. Geez, I remember when I could just open the door and go run 8 minute miles. Now I have to gradually warm up so I can run at a 11:30 or 12:00 minute pace. I'm hoping it's because I'm still just a wee bit out of shape (and fat), and not because I'm not capable of getting back there. I am going to find out. I have this theory that skinny people run faster, and I'm going to investigate that further.
Well, just stopped by to say Hi; it's been a rather busy day, and I'm glad it's about over. Here's wishing all my buddies a wonderful evening. Toodles!
