funny how life seems all out of whack right now. it is actually friday now and i have to be up in 5 hours.. just cannot get into any kind of routine at all. anyway- skipped the run today as i had to go to toyota and find out my water pump was bad and my timing and drive belts were also bad and my brakes were bad too. add in some other stuff and a short 3 hour visit turned into all day- and got out just in time for the big thunderstorm so i skipped any thought of maybe hitting some balls at the range.
and did lots of house stuff instead and bank stuff also. not a wasted day but not what i wanted for sure. yesterday was more wasted as the 3 hour round trip to the drs proved futile. wouldn't take my insurance and for hundreds of dollars they would see me and then add on anything i needed done. could not do that and will go back to the hmo and deal with the appt i finally got for next week and see what's up. then make a decision during open season. customer service and or care ????? what can i say?
tomorrow somehow has to include decisions about the basement and doors and bathroom and other stuff. joy in mudville----
did run 10 miles on tuesday and then ran 36 x 100 yesterday. my mileage is way down but the intensity is up some. doing a little longer speedwork and a bit more often. the morning heart rate is down and i can go a little faster at a lower heart rate than when we were in oxford. will get in what i can these next few days and then go back to my schedule of 3 hard days and three easy and a day off with two days off if i play golf. long and short trackwork with a long run and 3 so called easier days. the torn muscle is healing i think; still some surprise pain when i turn unexpectedly. will add all of the stretching and weights back into my schedule and when the house is done look for a yoga class to take. weight is up one pound since we are back. can get it down where i want it eventually.
running is not as much fun here actually as the trail, despite its' beauty and convenience is not the adventure that oxford was. though i do like having the track so available if i keep an eye on the lacrosse and soccer days.
not an exciting entry as none have been lately. still adjusting to being back-some good and some bad- will all work out as long as i can stay healthy. nobody hates being old as much as i do-
more soon- do miss ending the runs at eggs, etc. and i was thinking that my book club was meeting tuesday night and i was not there, though i sent in my comments and cath emailed me back with what happened. life goes on for now..... nice comeback by the eagles tonight.
