BARNDAY!!! Finally got to ride with my kids again, which is always fun. Had six people in the lesson which makes it a bit crowded, and one girl fell off while we were jumping. She was fine, but it's always scary to watch. Vuelo was good - he sticks his tongue out while he's working and today it reminded me of a little kid learning how to write. It was still 96 while I was driving out, so still a very hot ride.

My mom used to say to me that riding was great exercise for the horse, but I'm exhausted after a good lesson.

Think I have tendonitis in my elbow.  Not sure how it happened or what I do to damage it, but ow!  Got an unofficial opinion from a PT at work who gave me some stretches and strengthening... time to get started I guess.

Yet another hot run. I love running in the heat, but it certainly slows me down and makes me have to walk more. Stopped my Garmin at 6.3 and forgot to turn it back on, but the whole run is only 6.5 or so, so I'm not worried.

Run #1
  • 1h 24m
  • 7.32 miles
  • 11m 28s /Mi

Now this was a fun run. We started from two good friends' new (beautiful) home, ran a bit, met my brother, ran some more, walked a bit, ran a bit, wandered around... felt like I've heard ultrarunning community described. "We ran for awhile, stopped to eat raspberries off a bush, ran some more..." Totally casual but still got in over 7 miles. Then got to drink good coffee in a lovely location with wonderful friends. I am blessed.

Run #2
  • 37m
  • 3.50 miles
  • 10m 34s /Mi

Still incredibly hot. Went shopping for new sportsbras since the old ones just don't seem to be doing their job, got three to try out... so three laps... two of 1.5 miles each, the last of only .5 miles since it was hot and I was tired. Youngest rode her bike along with me which was a lot of fun. I was glad to be done, though...
