and on and on

so the snow this week sure changed plans for my birthday as well as the rest of the week, but i did manage to get in some miles this week with back to back 9 mile runs on wed and thursday and then took today off to go to our refi settlement. the legs were really tired yesterday anyway after some longer runs and the 65 mile bike ride. with 58 miles in the last 7 days they needed a break. i know that the last 7 days don't really constitute my running week, but it is still a bunch of miles and the legs say they needed a break.

about 4 miles of yesterday's run was done with george, who i bumped into coming down west blvd and that was nice as he is steadier than i am and i may be just a little stronger even with tired legs so it worked out ok for both of us. then i spent several hours practicing golf and that was nice despite the cold. i did go to the range today but the course was still under snow and water so i hit a large bucket and went home to do short game in the back yard. it all went so-so but i am still learning things and did practice what andy had said.

and before settlement i did a nice weight workout and that went well. i did notice later in the day that my left PF and hip flexor were really tight but i stretched them out a bit and it seemed to help. cannot afford my good side to be hurt at all, even if the dr says the left side is my tight side. it is the right quad that holds me back for sure. i have been stretching more and more and will keep it up.

now on to whatever is next. lots of things to do and also to decide in the near future. am now signed up for 4 marathons and can easily schedule 4-6 more. can the body hold up? if i can get through the first one or two i think i can do when i ran with MAMA and did my marathon every month. we shall see. have some more support and also have to deal with conflicts. should be interesting.
