The 2nd Ohio chapter of my life is finished, I didn't realize my most recent run was last Friday... oof.

I also wouldn't have run today but my cars instrument cluster did it's annoying thing where it shuts off so I took it in to the shop to get fixed and ran home after picking up a uhaul to go dump some of our junk at the landfill. It was 100° and the truck did not have ac so the landfill experience was rough lol. Then I dropped off the uhaul and ran over to pick up my car.

Becca is driving the car back because she has family along the way she wanted to see, which left me to take Whitney on the plane. We survived, although somebody jacked my phone in security and TSA had to hunt him down and bring him and his bags back for a search... was awkward but I got my phone back just in time to make my flight. Grateful to the mighty TSA.

Between that and the water heater going out Sunday it's been an eventful week.

Ran over and did the thanksgiving 5k course and then ran around that area for a while and came home. The difference between what's supposed to be an easy long run in Ohio vs Utah is kinda wild, partially because I'm a little out of shape and have not acclimated to 4500 ft yet- but mostly due to the hills.
