Lardy, lardy, lardy

I guess the run was effective yesterday because I'm sore today. Today I finished two books, took my Banjo apart and cleaned it, put on new strings, polished it up where it's just like new, then I ate lunch, vacuumed, sat down to rest for a minute, and off I went into nap land! Nice start for a vacation, huh?
I still wanted to run today so after the rain stopped (we have received 3 1/2 inches since yesterday) and I woke up, I went out for an easy run. I was sore? Tired? Lardy!
Anyway, I managed to get in 4.21 miles as a recovery run. Heel didn't bug me too much....still there though. No word on my sons tests, the medical system can be so aggravating at times! This hurry up and wait is really wearing on me and Sandy.
So I hope to get at least 30 miles in this week. There might be an opportunity to race Saturday...we will see.
Hope all is well with you, peace!

Hope you get some answers soon! That is the worst; you're in my thoughts. Glad you are keeping a check on the heel and still are getting the work you want in.

Still hoping good things for your son. I empathize with both of you as parents. Naps are a great way to spend a vacation.

We went through lots of testing and waiting w/ our daughter last summer. It really does wear you out. Hope your vacation is continuing to be grand. You're keeping awfully busy for someone trying to have a relaxing week. Nap away!

The fact that you were hurting just means you worked hard. Sounds like you made good use of some "downtime".

      This is the most wonderful time of year! I love the heat and humidity! Yet I still get out earlier due to my advanced age! 4.4 miles! ...
