13 people on a cool, very windy day. other team got the sub. my team did well, we did an effective zone def and i was usually the point on the cup, meaning i did the most running. we won 5-1. then 4v4, won 3-2. 

running a 6k tomorrow, first race in a long time. as sore as i was today after, it may be slow.

First race in 4 years, ran cause GE allowed employees to run for free. First ever public race on the GE trails (which I've run many times and my family comes and walks them with me). This was my first race in 4 years. I have barely run for years, was very sore from frisbee yesterday, and figured I shouldn't run. But I did- my 10 year was afraid of being trampled at the start so I started with her, then she took off but my 14 yo caught me and we ran together for a few miles. Splits were 8:30 (oops- too fast), 9:30, 10-ish. It was long, about 3.85 miles. Finished mid pack. My 10 year old was top under 12 girl and 9th overall female. Fun time, achilles will feel it tomorrow

no run but kids were off school and wife was at work, so i took the day off and went hiking with 4 kids and 2 dogs at dupont state forest. i love that place, haven't been in years and years- used to be my favorite place to go running. We did about 5.5 or 6 miles hiking.

Not a great day at frisbee- other team had the best player (fast and tall, we had no one to cover him) and most speed overall. We lost 5-2 and 2-3.

Frisbee. 4v4 which stinks. My team had better matchups, won 5-0. Then we swapped on player and lost 0-3.
