Longest run since June- 4 miles or more. And instead of alternating 5 min walk, 5 run, I did 10 min of each, so I was running miles without rest. Hopefully my Achilles isn't too unhappy tomorrow.

decided it is finally time to try frisbee again, after 2 months away. Went easy, minimal cuts or hard runs. Felt ok after, groin was more sore than achilles. 5v5, my team won 5-2 (after trailing 1-2), then won 3-2.

My wife is out of town for 9 days so I'm pulling Mr Mom to all 5 kids while trying to work full time. Extra stress pushed me too far, presumably, so I started feeling sick on Tuesday and very sick Wednesday. Feeling partly better now so hopefully will be able to work out some tomorrow.

first frisbee in a while. 4v4, which is tough (lots of running). My team was down 1-3 then scored 4 straight for 5-3 win. Then we lost 0-2.
