One Week Until Clinton Lake 30 Mile Trail Run

So I've been crappy again about staying up to date on the blog. I'm not going to apologize anymore because we're at the point now where it would probably seem insincere anyway!

So I've been laying off a bit due to a sore left calf muscle or perhaps an aggravation of an old Achilles's tendonitis. Anyhow I'm going to take it easy this week and concentrate on getting plenty of rest and eating well going into the race.

Chia and the others have been hitting the Crossfit pretty hard, with a "bridal shower" 21-15-9/burpee extravaganza in my absence yesterday. Today she and Doug ran in the early morning drizzle for a little 10-miler.

Yesterday my dad cranked out a nice 10K time in the Bayou Hills Run down in Pensacola, FL. Finishing in 1:02 for about a 10 minute-mile pace. Strong work, Dad! He's plotting the Kennekuk Road Runners Mountain Goat, I think, and it sounds like the hills around the Bayou were a good training opportunity.

Check back for more. I can't promise it will be more exciting posting, but I will honestly make an effort to be more consistent!
