AM: (10.5 miles, 1:29:01). 30:00wu/31:09cd. 15 x 200m w/200 recovery. I did this as a fartlek (:45 on and 1` off) -- uphill x 8, downhill by 7. 91F (41% humidity). Felt pretty strong today, although the sun was out and it felt much warmer than 91.
Did not sleep well at all. As I was checking for scorpions last night (I always check under the sheets and around my bed) I found one! Figures, since Dean was gone and it is NOT MY JOB. I kind of freaked out and considered just moving to the guest bedroom, but decided that was silly. So, I went and put on a pair of boots, long pants and my bathrobe (why? I have no idea, I just felt I should be fully covered ;-) ), and then got a tupperware bowl, opened the sliding glass door, and stuck the bowl on him. Then I kind of danced around and tried to figure out if I had enough courage to slide a piece of cardboard underneath and walk him to the door ... I have done this with mice, but they don't freak me out as much. I took a few deep deep breaths, and did it .... RUNNING to the door, screaming and threw him out. I was proud of myself, but freaked out. So it took me ages to fall asleep. Then, Keiko woke me every two hours to go out - the people at doggy daycare keep giving her food, and then she gets sick and has to poop all the time ... I keep forgetting to tell them to stop giving her food. The short version of the story is that I got very little sleep last night ... and I have so much work to do today ... sigh.
PM: 4 miles easy. |
