Skipped a couple of days instead of one. My foot was very sore. A little better today but not great. Cold today at 28 degrees.

Not sure what's up with the pasting of informatoin into a blog entry but it come out all bunched up no for some reason...?

We went on a short RV trip with some friends to Lake Buchanan in the hill country of Texas and took a river cruise to see the Colorado River and the Eagles. It was fun.

Ran 3.25 miles in the park:
