Guilty As Charged

You're absolutely right, I HAVE NOT been running!! I am terrible. However, this week I really pushed myself to get back on track - today I ran 4 miles! Yay! It took a whopping 51 minutes, but whatever. I re-discovered the workout room in my neighborhood, and was happy to find that nobody uses it on Saturday afternoons. It was fun to run and watch all the kids play in the pool. If only Ashlee would bug me to run more often! You guys are letting me off too easy.

Lobsters and Jags

It just doesn't get any better than a nice, cool run along the coast of Maine first thing in the morning; checking out the fisherman as they head out in their waiters with loads of gear and cups of coffee. I went 4 miles this morning, which was a lot more difficult than it sounds thanks to the rolling hills (training in Florida is NOT good for you unless you race in Florida!) I did see a baby snake, a few mice, and lots of dogs. Not to mention a ton of people lazily milling about, talking to eachother and loading up their kayaks. What a relaxing place to live!

Last night was lobster night (and steamed clams and shrimp of course) which means I ate waaaaay too much. We also took the Jag for a test-run and made it about 70 miles roundtrip, so that's a good sign. I'm also sleeping a lot more here, I think because of the fresh air and cool temps. It's fantastic! Hope everyone is having a great running week, wish you all were here!
