6:30-8:30 a.m. BST to Farmington pond, home via Lagoon trails and 106. Great run with Andy. The trails were nice, other than a rolled left ankle. (it matches the one I rolled on a rock last Saturday) Stupid Farmington doesn't have a single outdoor fountain turned on. Maybe they are doing Memorial Day to Labor Day. 2 packs of Smarties for a 15 miler might be too little, but I ate oatmeal, 2 toast and choc milk for breakfast, so I couldn't have been too low. The last few miles Andy must have felt peppy; he picked it up, then we took turns creeping the pace faster and faster. He got me exhaling every 6 steps, then down to every 4 steps, and held it for the last 4 miles, so that was a bonus- kind of an inadvertent "little big". After the run, I pulled two 7 gallon buckets of weeds. Hung out with the baby and Tami for a while, then got really hungry. Nena and I went for lunch. We stopped at Wendy's for frosties and fries, then went to In and Out for burgers, and took all the food to Carl's Jr. to eat it. Next time we'll get Frosties, Carl's Jr. fries, In and Out burgers, and eat them at McDonalds. Then it stopped raining and we went and mowed a couple lawns the boys missed this week. My mower didn't have self-propel, so I am very tired. Good Saturday! |
