I did a really nice six miler last night, and I didn't even notice the humidity until I stopped: then all I could hear around me was the buzz of air conditioners from nearby houses, and all I could feel was sweat pooling on my skin.
It was good though, its a nice sweep: up a medium grade hill, along a rounded bend that I always seem to forget about until I get there, and then past the local golf course. Last night I turned around at their second driveway and came back.
I really like out-and-back loops, because if I'd been feeling bad I could have turned it around at 1.5 and just done three, and if some miracle had happened and I was feeling like SuperGirl I could have kept going and done eight or ten miles.
I'm pretty psyched to get back to a place where I can do eight or ten miles at a kick without worrying too much about it. I'm going to talk to the divine Ms. P this weekend and see if we're really going to do the Steamtown in October. If thats the case then in the next two weeks I've got to find a training plan and get up to the point where I can start one without hurting myself!
Its all so exciting!
a couple of fun things: map my run or gmap my run (if you're a google fan: and I am) or even 'pod it (if you're down with the 'pod: I don't own one, but I can imagine there is a hell of a coolness factor going on there.)
ah, the march of technology, huh?
So I totally forgot to touch on the title of this: I keep reading books about food, and magazine articles about food, and if you ever get a chance to check out the mega coolness going on at polyface farms then you should, because they are revolutionaries (in the best ways possible!) Anyway, yeah, food: who made yours? Do you know? Its one of those things that I don't think about often enough. But I'm trying to change that. Yep. I went and joined a CSA (might have to scroll a little to get the proper definition).
K, thats it. Bases are covered.
