runnin with a friend

Nice run this morning on the treadmill. 4 easy miles to start with and then finished up the last 6 or so at 7:45 pace. Hoping to get out this afternoon for a quick run at lunch with a friend from high school who just took up running.

Since I have been running on the tm, my dog Hanna comes down stairs and sits by the treadmill and sleeps while I run. I need to get her back out. Maybe the cadence helps her sleep????

So, I get home today after work and figure I can get a nice run in before dark. My wife was painting something in the garage and told me that she was glad to see me and to get changed. ???? Duh! I walked into the house and all the furniture in the kitchen and living room was moved to the center and there on a drop cloth ......... 3 gallons of paint in assorted colors. What??? My daughter will be coming home in 16 days from her mission and my wife thinks it's time to redecorate! Finished up at 11:30pm with round 1.

Round 2 started at 1pm after I went into work early. 3:30am early! It is 11:30 and I am just about finished. Just waiting for some paint to dry and put a second coat on. Changing colors is a royal pain! I am running tomorrow morning hopefully! Wanted to run the local 10k with Twinkies, but we will see what happens. Do you think my daughter will even know that we painted? Anyone know the ratio of miles per trips up and down ladders? I need to do a conversion! Happy Turkey Day everyone!

Tried to salvage some sort of a week today. Ran 15 + miles up the foothills and back on a very nice but cool day. Started at 37 degrees and finished up around 30 or so. Ran with Sheridan and had a great time visiting about life. Home projects are completed for the most part, so hopefully I will  be back to my normal weeks of running. This was a good run for me today. I haven't been this far since earlier in the year before my injury.
