It is what it is

I forgot to put in yesterdays blog that the bike ride did get me somewhat out of the Funk I was in.  At least enough that I went with Carolyn to the  spring banquet last night.  I don't like them but she does alot of things for me that she doesn't like either.  I really enjoy her company.  The longer we are together the more I realize what a wonderful women she is, better late then never!  Well todays workout went off rather well, except for the fact that I won't be able to walk tomorrow and Monday.  Ran down Salina Canyon for 16.01 miles which burned 2159 calories.  These runs keep reminding me how out of running shape I really am.  I wanted at least 15, but really set my sights on 16 or 17, so I am happy.  Ivie was feeling extra good so when I quit he kept running for whatever.  Rowdy went with and he ran for 17 miles and could have did more if I hadn't been done.  There was fresh snow for the first 5 miles and then the roads cleared off, except for patches of ice.  We had off and on again snow and of course the never ending wind.  When the wind blows I always say, " we are just getting that much better of a workout".  I think I might change my mind with the amount of wind this spring.  I use the term Spring losely because I am still waiting for it to show up.  Good workout.  I need a 19 and a 21 miler before Utah Valley.  It will be tight and I will be somewhat overtrained but it is what it is

  1. I really had a great time on the bike yesterday and today on the run. It was cold and snowy but well worth it. I am way tired. We will see what morning brings.
    Love your guts dude. Rowdy
