Snowshoeing

I am officially a survivor. Made it through week 1 of training without collapsing, dying, or quitting in the process. its always hard to get back into a routine; the drudgery of bad days drudges a little bit more when there is a prescription involved. The 5 mile run on Tuesday night, after a long day of work, might as well have been cough syrup. But, like Buckley's, it tasted bad, but it worked. Felt great to get through it.

Thursday was frozen, and the hills would have been treacherous, so that workout was postponed, leaving a threepeat that will seem pathetic in a few months time. A few hill repeats on Friday night, a 5 mile pace on Saturday and today's 10 miler. I was pleased with today's run though - 85 minutes, in the cold and wet. The snow was bipolar, hardpacked and slippery in some areas, fluffy quicksand in others. Either way, my legs will be sore tomorrow.

Got some good work done tonight on the tri site... hopefully that will continue. I think another union meeting with Mr. K is required later this week, but maybe a change of venue, with better scenery.

The artist formerly known as the meth-lab is now *nearly* complete. Can't really believe it myself. I have a few photos from the night that I first had the crazy idea of re-doing it. Once we finish the floors, I'll snap some after shots.... May be able to move in next weekend!

So everything is going well. Somehow managing to keep all the plates in the air. Need to find some more time for the D80.
