FREYGUY

pretty much an off day.  I'm worn down from company and a late night/early morning.  Once everyone left our house, my family and I went to late mass in Brownstown, then had Chinese for lunch. We went back home to clean up and rented a couple of movies.  While the family napped I went out for a run.  The weather was perfect, but my mind was not into it. One lap and home.

Well, not what I had in mind for today.  I had gone out for a bike ride and hit a dog just as I was building speed aided by wind.  I ended up on the pavement; my bike was a garage sale.  busted my helmet and went to the ER.  No broken bones.  No concussion.  Just a huge amount of road rash.  Enough that I'm out of commission; most likely for a few days. 

The Lord was definitely with me.  It could have been much worse. 

29 days to the marathon.
