Today is one of those mornings that is so beautiful (almost chilly) that if your LR was Sunday, you'd go ahead and do it today.<br>
*sigh*<br>
i can't get shoes on. Hank, however, wanting to see how my toe was stepped on it with all 80# of himself last night. good dog. <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/rolleyes.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Rolling Eyes"><br>
I'm hoping that i'm only out like a week.<br><br>
I did however get my schedule at school yesterday and it looks like I am in at 9:30 which is Kool and the Gang because I'll have no trouble getting runs in with the toe stepper before school. Then I'm off at 3:15 (40 min drive home...) so time to take care of pup play in the back yard and hit the occasional class at the gym.<br>
I've decided I am very interested in pilates....<br><br>
I need to grocery shop today (no yogurt situation at my crib must end soon), get some work done for my advisor and figure out how the hell i'm going to teach this year. Saw my room finally. Has a floor and ceiling, um...but that's all. <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Very Happy"> Maybe we'll do it all hippy style and sit on the floor...wouldn't be the first time for this kid....<br><br><b>Scratch</b> go go on your 7.5, dude.<br><b>Voo</b> good luck on your LR, buddy. i think chipotle is great fuel....also in the pasta/bean salad area, i think you'd like that bean recipe i posted last week, i left the mango out because i didn't have any and added kidney beans ...makes me feel really good, post run.<br><span><b>GREAT RUN VIBES OUT TO MY FAVORITE CRACKER HEAD</b></span> <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/s-ctf.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="UT"><br>
QOD2: I've got to give a couple of talks at a conference in NYC in November. I am hoping *ahem* to head to Mammoth cave for some fall camping.

<b>Moon</b>: Buddy! No doubt about it now, huh? That biking and swimming is making you FAST. Proud of ya! Great job!<br><br><b>EQ</b>: it was running away from the cold that taught you that, i have no doubt. <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Very Happy"> Grrrreat running!<br><br><b>Duck</b>: I just caught Survivor Man (i've been on a discovery channel kick since shark week...) and am hooked. He's NUTS, boy. I was watching when he was in the bayou <i>walking through the water with his boat!!!<br><br></i><b>Theia</b> didja get to go, didja, didja? I was sending you good vibes the entire time I was practicing 'down, stay' and making e-w omelets last night.<br><br>
In other news, I hate being sidelined, so does Hank but he was nice enough to check my toe by stepping on it last night at the dog park. good dog. <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/rolleyes.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Rolling Eyes">

speaking of things they don't teach you... i have on more than one occassion run from black bears too. ok. once it was black bears. another time it was a pile of bear mess. and if you don't think bear mess is worth running from, you've never stumbled upon a <i><b>steaming pile</b></i> of it <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/surprised.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Surprised"><br><br><b>Kris</b> did you have on jeans with holes in the knees? I went camping like that once and got just tanned little knees that i didn't think to sunscreen. oh yeah. that was <b><i>hot</i></b>.... <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/rolleyes.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Rolling Eyes">

EQ: buddy that was my thinking for sure. it was also what might have been my very first trail run <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Very Happy"> plus, it was June and you know how it is in June there, you have to be super careful because all the big critters are having babies and being protective....
