Oh, what a beautiful morning!

Such a nice day, in several ways. It is still so nice and cool and refreshing to run in the nice cool air--this is going to be a faint memory soon, I fear/remember from past years. Also, Sally is back!!!! So, I didn't have to run/train alone. It helps so much to have someone to go with. Any and all of you are welcome to join us at the Rez Y at 6 am on Tuesdays and Thursdays for a 4.3 mile jaunt--you can go any pace you want but the comraderie is very nice. Also, I took O2 Gold today which is an Advocare product. Now, it was either my imagination or the weather or whatever but I was not as short of breath today while I ran so I guess I'll be trying to remember to take that on some other days, particularly on the long runs! I hope I can make it on Saturday. My boys are flying in on Thursday to go to my youngest daughter's graduation from high school Friday night and I'm not sure what time everybody has to be at the airport on Saturday morning. But, I don't relish running 10 by myself so I'll see what I can finagle--is that how you spell that word? And, Matt, I need someone to mow my yard since I did manage to burn up my lawnmower. I need to take it to get fixed but need help lifting it up into my van. I LOVE mowing but I'm not too good on keeping the machines in good working order. I figured out it probably needed oil after it began smoking so I bought some and put it in. However, I failed to put the cap on the oil thing back on correctly so, while I'm mowing away, large clouds of billowing smoke starting coming out of the mower. I ran from it as I was afraid it was going to blow up. And, I was almost done with the mowing so now I have a mohawk look in the back yard. I consider mowing the yard an awesome workout/crosstraining exercise so now I'm mad I can't do that.
