I ran 8 almost pain-free miles on the treadmill today. Words can't express how happy this makes me.

Now if I just had a team to coach...

No running today. Trying not to overdo things.

Went to the school weight room and did lots of weights/core and some jump roping. Jumped rope for 6 minutes and gave myself a mile for that.

You know what makes me sad? That I've never made Sasha's list of "favorite blogs".

Here's some things I'm really excited about today...

1. Henry David Thoureau and his cabin at Walden's Pond. Seriously, so cool!

2. My upcoming run

3. The arrival home for the holidays of child #1

4. The Montana Grizzlies taking on Weber State on ESPN, live on national TV, TONIGHT.

Running activity: 8.25 miles on the treadmill.
