another rainy sunday-and nadal wins

was up early enough and the heart rate was 44, back down to where it hasn't been in weeks and that was a good sign. and as much as i didn't want to i listened to my brain rather than my heart and didn't run. decided that with over 2800 miles in so far i had some endurance and needed the right leg to just get better if i wanted to do the speedwork i have planned. and i have some training to do with three marathons coming up in the fall. so gail and i went for a nice walk instead in the rain and that was nice and fun in a peaceful sort of way and it didn't hurt at all. just got wet.

also got to hit some balls today while gail worked on her book and did that in the rain also. the new swing is coming along and just needs time and lots more practice. i am longer at least and now need to get straighter. will be ok once i get home and get to practice and play more. i hope so anyway; not life and death anyway- just golf.

did lift today and do some indoor putting and finished my lance armstrong book on his cancer stuff and also read some more on my china stuff. didn't do laundry and will on monday. did get some shopping done. ate one meal as i didn't run and substituted fruit and yogurt as snacks and that worked.

lots to do in the weeks ahead and will get going even more starting tomorrow. will rain all week on and off and that will be interesting also. we did watch some of nadal's victory and both guys played really well and what i saw was good tennis for sure though i didn't care who won. was hoping the last set finished today and it did. they are the only two guys worth watching for me right now.

didn't see any golf though and am sure that rained played a part on any played in england like the ladies open. will check on it later.

23 days to go when we wake up in the morning. need to collect and get the trash out so off i go. more soon.
