Kinda consistently running since 07 

Short-Term Running Goals:

5k in 18:00; 10k in 40:00

Long-Term Running Goals:

I would like to be able to keep up with my daughter.  The one who runs xc, not the one who's going to change the world through dance.  Although I would like to be able to dance also, so I change that to me wanting to be able to keep up with both my daughters.

Personal:

I have two gorgeous daughters; two good-looking cats and two dogs with great personalities.

Wondered how the garmin would read on a moving ship.  It didn't pick up the satellites while moving, so I ran in circles and tried to keep count.

0700, 85 F, really humid

Epcot.  I don't know why the girls like the French part so much.  There weren't any rides there.  Just shops and places to eat.  Now they really want to go to France for reals.  Yikes.

Kinda rucked.  Instead of a weight vest and books.  I had a backpack with sunblock and whatever else you need to spend 10 hours on your feet at Animal Kingdom. 

Get there early because the animals sleep in the afternoon.

It poured on us at the Magic Kingdom.  What was really magic was how we were able to get the girls to wear dorky ponchos.

Skip the new, improved Tiki Room.  Trust me on this.

Took the girls on Star Tours.  I had been telling them about it since they were babies.  They thought is was just okay.  Muppets in 3D were a blast, but they were more into the Aerosmith roller coaster.  Oh well.  Kids...

Bike ride to the dentist.  But the dentist wasn't there to sign my deployment paperwork so I have to come back later.  Got my teeth cleaned though and an hour's worth of cardio.

Since Jan I've lost some inches and my pants started falling off.  I spent the last couple of weeks vacationing with the girls and working on making my pants fit again. 

Rucked.  Started walking after 3.25 miles.

Rode my bike to a dentist appointment and back.  57 minutes including stop lights.  I can't balance on while waiting for the lights to turn green.  How do they do that?

Trail run.  I ran on a bmx path for a while to do hill work.  I felt pretty silly, since they were pretty short.  11:31 pace.

One designated  driver.  Two cars.  Ran back to pick up the other car.  Who parties on a Tuesday night?  Apparently we do.
