This weekends "long run" . . .

Not too happy a camper today . . .

I had intended to go for an 8 mile run yesterday at Toro Estates.  The plan was to get up early as usual and do a double out-n-back of my usual run to make a total of over 8 miles.

Didn't happen.

Saturday night I'd been helping at my moms restaurant until about 7 then I hung out with a couple of friends and had some beers.  I left fairly early because my godson had a football game in the afternoon and I wanted to get my long run in before his game.  I got home but I couldn't sleep.

I grabbed an Arrogant Bastard Oaked from the fridge went to bed and opened my book.  Opening the book was a bad idea.  I was near the end of it and it got intense!  I ended up crashing about 2 in the morning.

I swear I tried getting up at 6:45, but only one eye would open.  I closed it for a second and it was almost 10!  I got up, threw on my shorts, shirt and Bikilas and jumped in my car.  By the time I got to the trailhead, it was 10:15.  I ran ALL the way to the bridge to make it a 4 miler round-trip.

I got back to the car by 11 and went home to shower.  I was at his game by 12:15.  Unfortunately, he didn't start until after 1pm.

Oh well.

He had fun playing the 5th quarter . . . the boy has no coordination and he's afraid of hitting other players.  All that damn XBox playing!  I guess I'll have to get him to some other practice aside from what the coaches are doing.
