Lunch: 10.2 miles slow. HR 130. Somewhat cold, but very sunny and pleasant.

Megan and I are moving to Michigan (Rochester area) at the end of the summer. I will miss Philadelphia but it's a better job for Megan in numerous ways and she will be closer to her family and friends. It was a no brainer. I'm hoping my long-term job prospects are a bit better there.

I've looked for running clubs and it's basically Hanson-Brooks and [Insert Your Favorite Clever Drinking Refernece/Running Club]. I'm fine with beer drinking but that's mostly on my own time. I'm looking for something in between. I'm excited for a new adventure but I can't say as I want to move too many more times in my life (even though I've really only moved ~5 times). Both Megan and Oliver (our cat) are Midwesterners. I can't say that I'll ever be even though I lived there for 5 years.

PM: 30 minutes on the elliptical + stretching and core

Good luck with the move - I am guessing you continue to get use of your special screw in snow / ice running shoes there too.
