Planned on getting out all day but I've been really, really busy and will be for the next two weeks. I'm doing some charity work for the Hunstman World Sr. games. I'm running the computer program for the softball events. In the next couple weeks there will be over 1,100 softball games.... that sounds very intimidating.

Worked at the softball fields from 8 to 5:30 and had Myler the whole time so it was like double the work. Then finally got home and did some house projects and got a little run in before getting ready to celebrate my wifes little Birthday. She's 28 today but still just a little girl. I got her when she was only 19 and she was a cute little girl back then too. 

 The legs felt heavy... not very sore at all but heavy and more like I had two left feet.

B-Hills loop early before heading to the Sr. games. Legs didn't didn't feel half as heavy as yesterday. Hands were cold... time to start wearing gloves.

Felt really good this morning on my little run before heading over to the softball stuff. The horses where wanting to go but I just kept it easy. I'm guessing for the next couple weeks until the games are over I'll be stuck on this schedule for the most part. I spent 13 hours at the fields yesterday watching 60 and 65 year old guys hit it over the fence... pretty cool stuff.

B-Hills loop again this morning. It's nice and cool out. Gloves and a long sleeve... no pants. I'll be ready for the games to be over so I can get back to a regular system here around the house. But this is kind of a nice little mix up for the system anyways.

Finally got out this evening after working at the softball deal all morning and then coming home to work in the yard this afternoon. Once out running I felt really touch-and-go for the first 4 miles or so. Mik'L brought home a bunch of Cafe Rio from her meeting this morning and I downed about 3 adult servings worth at 1 p.m... and by the time I ran it still was booming in the system. Other than the tummy feeling way loaded I was able to get some good turnover on the legs. I hit the run at an avg of 6:46 min mile pace. By far the best run the Saturday after STG marathon ever. It's nice to feel like the legs may be coming around. I really think I need some focused workouts to help the speed come back. 

Mesquite anyone?
