Apparently I ran too hard yesterday, because I woke up pretty sore this morning. I did some push-ups differently this morning, but it's too hard to describe and I'm sure no one cares, so I won't, 50 sit-ups, and stretched out. While I was stretching I was thinking my calf felt 100%. I resolved not too run as fast today. I started to go and right away my calf felt a little stiff. But it loosened up, and I think it's going to be okay. Everything is going to be okay. I didn't see any of the regulars this morning. I'm pretty sure I saw Sis. Yarn and her daughter roller blading. I said, "Good morning Sister Yarn." halfway under my breath just in case it wasn't her. I saw a new gal that looked like she could out run the girl I saw yesterday. Where are all these speedy girls coming from? Time - 24:58 (avg. pace 8:20) Splits - 8:31, 8:22, 8:07 Temp - 62 
On the way to work I saw Double-Stroller Lady again. I guess she's running later in the morning now so maybe I won't see her as often. I also saw a rainbow. It's barely visible in this picture, but it's there. Whenever I see a rainbow and it's not actually raining or there's no threat of rain, I get real sad. You see, the Mormon missionaries came to our house when I was a wee lad and showed that old Church slide show I'll Build You a Rainbow. It's about a young boy named Jamie. His mother is about to die. Right before she does she tells him that families are forever and she'll always be there watching over him. He says, "How will I know?" She say, "I'll build you a rainbow."
