had an ordinary week. i have a sinus infection so i was tired a lot, but that is not unusual. i did not run on tuesday. heather took the week off again, so work was very peaceful. i think all the nurses appreciated that. i took today off because this weekend is my district convention. i am so excited, i think, or it may be nervous, i can never be sure. anyway, i have talked to people who have been to some of the days, and they have said that it is a great program.
not running tuesday allowed me to run long today. i wanted to get started early so i got up a little after five and was on the treadmill shortly after 5:30. i did that for six miles. i was hoping to do the trails for another six, but my knee starting hurting on the downhills. that is concerning. i am hoping that a good pair of trail shoes will take care of that. anyway, i cut it short by one or two miles. that will be my last long run before my va beach half. i am thrilled to get that in. after the treadmill stopped on me sunday after six miles i thought there was no chance of getting any kind of long run in. that would make my last long run about five weeks before my half, and that is entirely too long. now i was able to get in ten or eleven miles and still have a full two weeks to recover. hopefully my knee will not hurt anymore.
right now peter and i are waiting for my mom to arrive so we can leave for the district convention. it is in reading pa this year.
