5 Miles

Absolutely beautiful day here today. I didn't run until maybe 11:30 or so and it still was not too hot at that time. I'm so glad this hot hot summer finally seems to be over! Anyway, good run. I'm feeling good and my foot feels good and my hamstring still feels good. So those shoe inserts really did the trick. Should have looked into that when this first started ages ago! Oh well. Hindsight and all that! I downloaded the second book in the Furies fantasy series. I've been listening to some other books from the library when I run (Life of Pi, Neromancer, The Road). And, I don't know. They're all good book. I will finish listening to them all. But none of them have been really good running books. Maybe they just don't transport my mind. So I'll break my rule of only listening while I run so I can finish them up. Because, again, they are good. They just are not good for running!

Glad you are feeling so good from head to toe!

Life of Pi. What do you think? Should I go see the movie?

My left heel is still bothering me some and don't know what to do about it next. Been to the doctor, PT, wearing new orthotics. Still bothers me during the first mile or so of a run. then it seems to loosen up and be ok. Very frustrating.

The Waelchli's did provide a humidifier last night. I slept better and no bloody nose this morning. I ran 3 on their TM here and did fine. Now going to help Paul do some organizing in their garage.

I would go back to the doctor, I guess, and ask for a referral to...who's next?! You've been to the ortho, yes?

Glad you slept better. We're actually very fragile creatures, aren't we? It can't be too dry but it also can't bee too humid! We're are Goldilocks!

So, Life of Pi. I'm close to the end. I'm actually hoping to finish it today, if I can. I love it. Love. I love Pi, I love all the people I've met through him. I love all of the adventures and misadventures he's had. I love the things he thinks about. It might not be good for running, but I don't want to diminish how good it actually is. Maybe that doesn't make sense. You know, if it is so good, why isn't it good for running? But perhaps if you see it you will understand what I mean.

Last night Jessica and I had a date and we saw Pitch Perfect and it was so much fun! All kinds of singing.

Have fun with your jobs! You must have tomorrow off and plan on going back to Wisconsin on Sunday?
