PM- first run back post-stomach flu. Predictably slow and sluggish and painful. Slogged through 4 miles before calling it a day.

PM- Paris Mtn with Barry- we started early so didn't even need headlamps. As bad as I felt yesterday, I felt great today- amazing how quick you can bounce back. We spent most of the times railing against government, wars, etc- the usual libertarian arguments. Of course, bacon was discussed, too. 10 miles in 1:37. Threw the shoes in the trash after, too- worn out and my arches are starting to hurt in them. They were my first pair of trail M2's. Don't worry, I've got more than a dozen other PI shoes still in the box.

AM- 8. My plantar is still hurting from yesterday. I'll have to wear my Strassburg sock tonight.

Lunch- 7.5. Pretty nice day out for the 7 of us who ran.

We're heading to the hospital at 5 am tomorrow to deliver another precious baby. This will be number 5, another girl.
