| Lunch- perfect day for frisbee, low 70's and small breeze. 16 people showed up. My team was a bit more stacked- there was discussion of swapping teams but decided not to. We went up 2-0, then they scored 2, then we went up 4-2, they scored 1, finally we won 5-3.
5v5 for game to 3. My team won 3-1. I caught the winning point on a long breakaway.

| AM- Low 50's, ran 8 miles on GE trail, 8:30-8:00 pace. Felt fine. 5 deer and about 14 turkey. One neat thing- it was still dark when I started. About 10 minutes into the run, I was surrounded by trees just as the sunlight hit the clouds at the edge of the horizon. The clouds turned brilliant pink and orange, as did the trees all around me. It seemed almost fake, like an instagram filter. So beautiful. The pink/orange only lasted about 1 minute on the tree before the sun rose enough for the light to change to more normal colors.
Did strength class in the gym at lunch. Lots of low back work.

| 7 inches of rain expected Thursday to Friday morning, with High risk of flash floods per the weatherman. That's two months worth of rain in one day. Should be fun.
Lunch- I had to run to frisbee cause my car wouldn't start. Intermittent rain plus mist, and a strong breeze, made for some crazy frisbee. Plus, tons of drops. We were all in a good mood and the game was hilarious with so many funny drops. I dropped a long bomb, Jeff dropped a very easy pass from me (he was still defensive-focused so didn't think of catching it)... everyone had drops. My team lost 4-5.

| AM- Raining and lightning outside so ran inside. Back still sore from Tuesday so I ran slow and easy with no weightlifting. Felt tired so wanted to get at least 4 miles but found myself plodding on and on till I hit 9 miles, at which time my back was starting to tighten up so I called it a day. 77 minutes, 9 miles.

| Lunch- didn't make it on my run till about 1 pm. Ran 4 easy miles on the GE trail- it was in a lot better shape then expected, with no trees down, no big branches, and only the usual wet/swampy areas. No humans or animals soon. Then weight lifted.
We ended up with just over 6 inches of rain yesterday. That was fun.

| AM ran 5 easy miles.
We've had a wide range in weather. In the past 9 days it has snowed, then was 75 deg, then rained 6 inches in 24 hours, had tornadoes, and now it is snowing again today (fairly heavily, too). You never know what to expect.
