Busy Weekend


Headed north this past weekend.  Full weekend for sure.  Saturday morning was spent in the World's Largest Convoy.  The kids loved it.  Then, we had lunch at Portillo's for lunch. Saw dad in the hospital and rounded the day out at The Little Red School House in Willow Springs, Illinois. On Sunday, we celebrated Michelle and Grandma's birthday.  We took this picture of The Fox in a tree that he did not want to be in.  We were happy to capture these smiles.
If the Colt's we not playing tonight, the kids would have went right to bed.  The Fox stayed up until the middle of the fourth quarter. Watching football is one of his favorite activities.


Take Care,

Hey!

The Fox and I at the surgery center.

Not much going on here. The Fox had his tonsils removed last Friday and is eating a ton of ice cream. The Monkey is mad because she is not allowed to eat ice cream for breakfast like The Fox. Pinched a nerve in my back, marathon training is on hold. Maybe my body was not made to run 26 miles in a row.  Feeling better today.

Wanting to write a post about the Indianapolis Star article from this past Sunday about the IPS kindergarteners.  It was about the problem kids in the program.  The father, with four kids for four mother and a long arrest record, was surprised to see this behavior from his kid.  The five year old kid didn't even know how to color. Very sad. 

Take Care,

Leilan

Run Workout for Saturday, September 4th 2010



Just an OK run this morning.  Nothing to brag about. Today's scheduled goal was four miles.  Had some pain in my left knee and shin.  Had to stretch it out about 1.5 miles into the run.  Today, I ran a little further than I normally do but at a slower pace.  Felt good over all. At least I kept moving. Tomorrow's goal is 12-14 miles.  That adventure should take up much of the late afternoon.  Hopefully, I will be able to walk when I am done.





Distance 3.96 miles

Time 1:11 hour  minutes
