moving is over
Hooray for being finished with moving! I am not a fan of moving in general. It is time consuming, expensive, and interferes with my running schedule. As evidenced by the fact that last week I ran a paltry 27 miles, and this week to date I've run 9 miles. Hoo boy, that is not the best! In my defense I did bike 28 miles, my farthest ride yet, on Sunday before unpacking and painting all day.
In addition, now that I am no longer walking to work, I am riding my bike 5.5 or 6 miles each way. Not that it's a huge change but it's making my legs a little more tired. And I have to wake up earlier than I'm accustomed to if I want to run over five miles! Lazy, lazy Barb.
Our new house is great. It is crazy owning a house. We have our own yard and it is awesome! Hopefully the yard will not be hurting too much this week as we are in for more record breaking temperatures. I believe the high today is 99 degrees. So it is imperative to run before work. Even then I am getting much more sweaty and disgusting than usual!! I love my new running routes, though. I get to run through two very nice neighborhoods on my way to a nice park with a very long dirt path around it. So awesome.
We are leaving for Philadelphia Thursday evening, for a wedding on Saturday, where my faithful reader K. is getting married to her high school sweetheart! It is going to be so much fun. So it will be very busy, and it's a short trip but I hope to do some delightful sea level running and see the sights of Philadelphia, a place I have never been.
