4 this morning then I had to run, home.... It's a long story. 

Finals week has me really stressed out. There isn't time to do anything anymore!

No morning run. Today was the first day of finals for our school and I got in 8.5 easy around town afterwards.

Eh, today was a weird run. I couldn't get a ride home, AGAIN, so I had to run home without any of the books I needed unless I wanted to walk around Kennewick for 7 hours with all my stuff. 

And of course I left my house key on my desk in my room and none of the doors were unlocked. So basically I was stuck out here until my brother decided to show up from middle school, which let out in an hour. 

So I figured I'd at least do something useful with my time and ran the loop around Thompson Hill before I stopped by the school. After school let out and I was garunteed that the house would be unlocked by the time I got back home, I visited some old teachers and stopped in to talk with Coach Rexus.

In the end, 11 miles of running total. Completely spontaneous and unplanned.

It was hard to find time to run today. School let out at 10:30 because of finals and I probably could have ran then, but it was a choice between getting my run in for the day or going to Pizza Hut with the team to celebrate the end of finals. So of course you know what I did. 

After that I headed to my cabin north of Spokane for the weekend with my family. The sun sets at 4 and it was a 3 hour drive at least after leaving at 1, so yeah, that's my excuse. 

I received this booklet from the last time I went to Flathead Summer Running Camp and I remember it said something like "You must give up hanging out with your friends and going to parties to get your run in for the day bla bla bla" But I've also heard that you don't sing to get to the end of a song. It's all about what's fun right?

Well now I'm up in the mountains with the clean crisp air. The temperature is hovering around 40 degrees but I got in enough miles to give me 40 for the week. Dissapointing? Yeah. Acceptable? Mmm, maybe :P
