o, here are the results: As I previously reported, I was just about perfect with my watch! And I was a couple of seconds faster than I thought, so... theres that. I'm 36 seconds off my PR, from 2009. No matter. I am happy with how it went, and I'm happy that I was able to string together a set of footsteps that might be considered a "jogging" pace, not a walk. 

Kiss for luck for the dumpster. He was #10 and I was #235 and we started in number order. So he was off long before I was! 

That's Schmize on the L, Chris on the R and our pal Trudy with the yellow shirt. She's the RD.

And all of us after the race. I am going to burn my horrible unflattering outfit now. kthxbai.

Life resumes 'back to normal'. The purpose of Chatt this weekend was to meet K's parents to drop off his nephew. So, the Kid is back home with K's sister and that ended 4/5 weeks of travel. I'm transferring my license to find a job here and K started a great internship. Whew. I feel like I can breathe again. Nothing until mid-July. Whew.
 
Going to pick blueberries again.

Calf is feeling good except when going up/down steps. Foot is also feeling better - still painful first thing in the morning.

I picked up the key for my new rental condo yesterday. I can start moving in next week. Exciting! I plan to move the small stuff Tuesday - Thursday and the movers will move the big stuff on Friday. It is going to be a busy week next week with work, moving, and hopefully back to training.

Leaving for the airport later this morning. Heading to Coeur d'Alene to Sherpa for Mike at Ironman.

Half day in the office today then 2 days off. Still lots to do here but at least the kitchen is functional and clean. Trying to figure out how to get rid of the electric stove. I will probably have to use LP gas. If we had a tank we could install a generator too. Since we have a well and septic we really need power to keep everything flowing so to speak!

I am excited to try a new fitness class today. Pound.Rockout.Workout. Will try to figure out how to post a link
My trainer took the instructor class and is just trying some practice classes. It looks like fun and she said it was hard! Rock music, drumming and exercise-perfect end of the day pick me up! Can't wait!
