10:14 ap I really should not have run so far yesterday, so I cut the miles down.  I was ramping up too fast.  I need a couple of weeks of 3-6's and then build from there.I ached a little, and was really tired the rest of the day.  Also my newly healing stitches had weird striation pain when I laid down at night.  Sebastian, one of my Chilean (basketball) sons just graduated from the University of Nebraska (on a scholarship my husband secured for him).  He made a side trip to Utah on his way from Nebraska to CA so I could meet his his girlfriend Leona ( who he will probably marry this year). I was so touched he brought her to meet me and wanted my approval.  He calls me Mama. He's been a good boy. He helped me a lot the summer he lived with us.  He never fails to remember me on mother's day and my birthday. Sebastian and Leona are absolutely the two most smokin' hot people I have ever seen together. They are going to make amazing children together.  He is 6' 3 and has the muscles of a moderately seasoned body builder.  Though his build is not ideal for basketball, he's got an 8 pack, biceps, and good calves.  He is perfectly proportioned and beautifully shaped. I notice these things because my father (a body builder himself) won many titles as he did the whole circuit from Mr. San Diego right on up to Mr. America in 1975-1977. So I spent a good deal of girlhood subjectively judging men's bodies; For better or worse that's the way it is. Sebastian's girl Leona is 6 feet tall.  Her mother is from Mexico, her Dad is black.  She lives in a part of Southern California that I am very familiar with (Imperial Valley, Brawley, Blythe). She is as willowy thin, but athletic and strong.  Her face is beautifully shaped and she has amazing hair and skin.  The best part is she is as sweet and Christian as she is good lookin.  They don't drink or smoke, and have for the most part kept each other out of trouble.  She finished up this year at Nebraska as well (volleyball scholarship). I am so proud of Sebastian.  Though Leona asked me if I was "going for a jog" when she saw me dressed for running.  Somehow the word "jog" cut me to the core.  I guess I'm a jogger now.
