Change of plans today
So I got home very late from the match, Red Bulls won! For someone from New England, I sure enjoy watching New England teams loose. That’s because Southern Connecticut is really its own little realm, not really New York, not really New England. We don’t have ridiculous accents and shit.
Anyway, I finally got to sleep about 2am. My knee hurt bad enough that it kept me up most of the night. So when I finally go to sleep, I ignored my alarm clock for almost 2 hours. By the time I finally felt well enough to get up, I missed my morning window to run. And I had missed church. Which, being named Godfather to my nephew, I really need to make an effort to go and get all the paperwork I need to make that happen. So having missed that, it was off to the house to split logs and start to clean up the back yard. I was trying to tell my family our lawnmower could handle the excessively long grasses and stuff. They did not listen, so they took until I was done splitting logs, and had only gotten half the yard done. I started up the mower and destroyed the rest of it in no time.
So we’ll call today cross-training. Splitting wood is certainly a workout. Meanwhile, my knee needed a rest anyway. I feels a bit better, but not great. So life is coming along and that’s what I need right now. However, my allergies have me feeling terrible, my throat is sore and my eyes hurt from mowing grasses and weeds. I’m really not supposed to do that stuff. Well, I will make up some miles tomorrow I hope. Have fun everyone and keep running!
