Get Real – Home, Health and Community

Robyn and I ran another hilly course today. I am no longer committed to running Bloomsday. I have to admit that I am a little disappointed that I won’t be running. I know that it’s the best thing for me, to give my body the time it needs to heal. Robyn runs Bloomsday every year. I have trained her for many Bloomsday’s over the last 6 years. We are going to do a few more runs to make sure she is ready for May 6th.

I woke up to a forecast of clouds and rain, typical Seattle Spring. We ran one of our usual courses through Medina. I was tired from helping out with my daughter’s volley ball team last night. I agreed to be the “Team Mom” again, but couldn’t sit on the side lines while they were practicing. After coaching gymnastics for many years, I find that I am a coach at heart. I have to get involved!

The kids are great. I think I will help Phil and Craig run the practices. It will take my mind off worrying about when my plantar fasciiitis will be gone.

Robyn and I made it though the hills. It was a little easier this week. Next week will be our last long run, hopefully we’ll get some good weather. All good runs end with a latte’

Cheers
