Another day when I could hardly bring myself to go. Came home after practice (didn't run a step) and did a lake loop. I'm wondering if a day completely off would be better or worse?

Road workout at Mercer. Warm up 4 miles. 10 x 800 back and forth on first half of road mile with 1:15 jog rest. Cool down 3.5 miles.

Ragged start then got very consistent. Nice group with Katie, Mary, Harvey and Ryan. Ran last 2 solo. Very happy with both effort and results. Cold and spent by end of cool down.

I've gotten real good at streamlining this "hour" lunch deal. I've started wearing my running socks and underwear to work, as part of my "work attire". I stretch before and after at my desk now. My co-worker finds humor is this part. I also wear my slip-on work shoes, instead of the tie work shoes. All this gets me to the point where I can run a spirited 6 miles and shower in the allowed time.

Also, if you haven't noticed yet, Carl J Samuelson is setting/creating a brand of his own in Nebraska running. I'm not going to act like we're best friends, but I am proud to say that I know you. There's always a new resurgence in running and Carl is leading this one. I'm excited to witness what you've started and look forward to what you do next.

Great run, although pretty foggy and dark when we hit the Big Papio by Center St., with Theresa, Dave, and Jimmy.
Got home, and was feeling pretty good since my miles matched my pace (my engineering brain loves when that happens), but then I went to open my garage door with the keypad and...nothing. Nothing happens. I must have tried 20 times. Drat. So, at 6:11am, I have to ring my doorbell and knock on the door while yelling "it's just mom" so I don't freak out my kids. Luckily they woke up and let me in :). Not my best mom moment!!
  • carljsamuelson carljsamuelson Just need to replace a battery on the thing?
    • posted at 12:38:00 EDT

  • BetzE BetzE @ Carl - yes, replaced the battery, but the darn thing should give you some kind of warning. Sheesh! @Shawn - yep, small pleasures :)! @Gary - I'm sure I woke my neighbors yelling "it's just me!" over and over again.

To the pool after a little bit of sleep. Not sure why I do this to myself. Felt surprisingly ok. Even had to share a lane, which was tolerable. Concert was good. Adam took a bit to warm up, but then was spot on. Favorite part was the last song. Tribute to The Purple One. Very stellar.

Sweet surprise was seeing the one and only CN. Talked her up for long while. That lady ALWAYS brings me up. She really does. No bs, just genuine friendship. Made my day. :)

Now at work where I feel coffee will be a staple.

Ain't life grand? So happy about where I've been and what I've done, and thrilled at the excitement of a new day, next year and beyond.

For a time following the Ohio race, I wasn't sure if I would be a permanent member of the HFC. No, not the "High Five Club", but the "Hurtin' For Certain" club. But things settled down smoothly and I had a lovely nice easy short jog this morning with no issues.

Big year ahead in 2017. I'm already dreaming about the Louisiana Marathon. The "50-50" and "BBB" will occur next year. "50-50" will be me turning 50 years old on 4/19/17, 2 days after my 50th marathon (Boston). Didn't plan it this way, just a wonderful occurrence. And a party is in the works for the 50-50. "BBB" refers to my planned marathons in 2017--Baton Rouge, Boston, and Berlin. AND, after 12 long years, I'm planning to finish and hand out an upcoming homemade CD. Same as my other ones--a collection of my favorite cover songs, with myself doing all the vocals and all the instruments. I've begun working on it already. Lots of brushing up to do for drumming and trumpet playing especially. But thrilled, nonetheless.

Song of the day: "Still Crazy After All These Years" by Paul Simon. Guilty as charged, brother!
