Ran and walked a super easy 4 miles at LBL with Charlie.

Got in 10 miles yesterday morning at LBL. After all the rain we've had I knew Barton Creek would be too muddy. I had a shit nights sleep and still felt pretty good during the run. My time was 1:55. I'm feeling good and ready for the final buildup for Rick's run.

Joined in the usual 7 miler this morning with Shan and Mark....and we had a guest. Diana Heynen joined us this morning. It was a very nice change in our routine. She is so easy going and easy to be around.

Mark pissed me off several times though!!

He doesnt have the same filter that most of us do. He'll say insulting things trying to be helpful. He has a way of casually belittling people and always has as long as I've known him. That's why I stopped associating with him for several years.

Real friends are supposed to be supportive. Real friends are supposed to be tactful if they think a friend needs advice of any kind.

Anyway, feeling good after our run this morning. I think my foot is good and the knee actually feels okay. Now if I can just be creative in keeping up my mileage up next week after getting soused this Saturday and.......our Guadalupe River trip next weekend.

I just remembered I've got next Friday off. Maybe I can get in an early 15 miler that day!!

Got in an easy 4 miles at LBL this morning. The foot feels okay I think. Yesterday was the 3rd anniversary of Rick's death so I sent his daughter Andrea an email letting her know I was thinking of her. I was very pleased this morning to receive a reply email from her saying she's in town nursing a friend who has cancer. She also said in her email that she runs LBL daily. I invited her to our Thursday run tomorrow morning. I sure hope she makes it.

Ran 6 miles at Barton Creek from the Hol yesterday. After my run I got a bunch more stuff done around the house.

Nursing phantom aches in my right foot after my stupidity last Saturday in the pool. Icing it regularly. I'm sure it'll be okay soon. The problem is that I'm getting behind the eight ball in my miles for Rick's 50 mile.

Shan and I had a very humid 7 miler this morning. We did it in 1:08. I didn't need a walk break until mile 5. I was pretty pleased with that since I had been sucking major eggs before we go to mile 3!!!!
88 miles in June. Not bad considering I'm still nursing my left knee and trying hard NOT to have foot issues.
