I am currently in Florida. My work sent me down here for two weeks to teach a training course. My Mom offered to take the kids and have Susie and Eliza fly down with me. I took her up on the offer. So it it kind of like being on vacation except that I have to work everyday. The toughest part about though is that now I have to get my Mom something really nice for Mother's Day since she is watching my other kids. Any suggestions?

 I ran 6.5 miles in the rain.

After eating the seafood platter at McGuire's, I cranked out 6 miles in under an hour.

We drove from Pensacola to Tallahassee last night to visit my brother. He and I ran together this morning. We ran to a small state park called Indain Mounds. I had some trails and we ran all of them. The weather here is warm and humid, but it was a great morning run.
