Gully long run. Sun is coming up early enough so that I can get a decent trail run in and still make it to work (almost) on time. Makes the whole day go a lot better when I can get in a decent morning run without getting up at 4 AM.

Especially good today since I'm teaching the Holocaust and that always bums me out. 

PM: Five miles of ellipticaling .

Eight miles in 60 minutes around Sugarhouse Park.

Knees hurt. Foot hurt. I sure would love a pain free run. 

Small victory tonight at Andy's baseball game. He built no sand castles in the infield! Not that there's anything wrong with sand castles just that there's a time and a place. I've had a hard time getting this through to him.

Last week I took him to a Bees game and spent a long time pointing out to him how the fielders concentrated on the game and other finer points of baseball. I asked him if he had any questions and he said "yeah, can I go ride the train".

4.15 miles in 36 minutes around the neighborhood.

I could say that at least I'm going to save a lot of $ on race entry fees this year. But no, I registered for a bunch of races months in advance. 

PM: 1.5 miles around the neighborhood. Stopped when the foot started hurting.
