Thanks Gustav!

Luckily Gustav never came close, but he brought some great weather to us! No humidity for two days - which made this morning's run go quite smoothly.

So I haven't run AT ALL in two weeks, since the 7 mile run. I haven't wanted to run in the evenings (adjusting to school makes me tired) and I didn't go to last week's long run (due to a Friday night social, which won't happen again because I want to run Surfside). So I was a bit apprehensive about this morning's 7 miler. I got really tired at mile 5 last time and walked most of the last 2 miles, so I figured I'd try to go 6 miles before giving up jogging. Nope! I went all 7 quite easily - actually 7.5 (their measurements were off). I was tired, but never felt like giving up! My calves started to tighten and my paced slowed, but I kept with my regular intervals and I feel fine.

Now I'm off to soak in the tub before going out for a day of grading at various coffee shops....

Oh! And I'm back on stage! I was cast in Neil Simon's "Rumors" at the Clear Creek Country Theatre. Rehearsals start next Sunday and I'm sure I'll have lots to say.

Cheers!
