Yesterday was great weather despite the 20 hours of straight rain...it was in the 50s and the nice thing was the rain washed away all the snow. Put me in a great mood. I planned on running right away after work, but when I got home the power was out! I freaked out thinking the sump backed up and flooded the finished basement, but luckily it was ok I did get a run in right after that, so I was happy. What sucks is I haven't run since my last race. On 11/28 I ran a half marathon. On 12/31 I ran 3 1/2 miles. I felt the same after each run...geeze. There is quite a slope of decline when you stop training! But if the roads are clear and I can get in a few more runs I'll be back up to 8-9 miles in 2-3 weeks. It's really not as bad as it seems. Since the power was out last night, I sent the wife and kids to the outlaws to stay the night. I was gonna stick around and man the sump pump if it started raining again. Luckily it didn't so I got to stop at the neighbors' house and have a few glasses of scotch and chit chat. Ended up not leaving until 12:15 and still had to get up for work this morning...oops! Snooze was my buddy today! Aside from that, let's start the year off right! Hope everyone has a great day! Matthew |
