A Master now

On Sunday I was to run; but after getting home from work, I was greeted by a surprise birthday party. The party that marks my move up a tick box, into the Masters category. It really did come as a surprise (the party, not my age) and it was nice to see so many family and friends at one time.

All this excitement made me postpone my 18k run until Monday morning. The postponement was nice, in that the weather was absolutely dreadful Sunday afternoon. The next morning, I waited out the morning wind storm and ran at about 10:30 a.m -- just after all the damage was done from the wind. I ran for 1:27:00 with 3X1K fartleks thrown in. Coach has me skipping my Tues. workout, so I'll be back on track Wednesday.

Good to see you and the family as well, Mr. Fantastic... That was some wind storm, hey? I had an obstacle course of fallen trees, downed and drooping wires on the way home... made the ride home a little more interesting for sure..
