Breakup!

Monday workout: 5 miles, 11:38, TREADMILL, socks
Tuesday workout: 6-ish miles with 5 x 1k at 8:30 with 400m rest, ice rink, Connects

It took me three treadmill runs, but I finally finished Skyfall. Although I'm not sure you can call it "finishing" if you end up ignoring the end because it got boring and you wanted to see if you were capable of reading blogs on your phone while running on a treadmill. Answer: sort of but not really. Still more entertaining than that movie.

Happy breakup! It's been blazing hot here the past few days. Like, 48 degrees this afternoon. That's insane. I've been wearing shorts during my runs (although yesterday and today's runs were both indoors, so I guess it doesn't count). So nice. Here's a picture I stole from the local newspaper:


That's Anchorage spring for you. Green grass and daisies it is not.

Anyway, I just thought I'd drop by to say a quick hello and goodbye. It's kind of stress city 'round these parts so I'm declaring a blog lockdown for the next few days. If you're wondering why I'm not commenting on every. single. one. of your posts, that's why. But don't you worry, my stalkees; I'll get back to it soon.

  1. We (or at least I) will miss you. Especially since you're the only one around when I'm sitting here working at the computer in the afternoon. But *sigh* I suppose I'll live. :) Good luck in trip prep. :)

    1. Aha, thanks! Time differences are rough ;). I imagine you and I are in similar situations, only I'm always sitting around before bed hoping people will post (even though it's, like, 3:00 a.m. their time) while you're already onto the next day! Although the time difference is MUCH more dramatic for you.

  2. Ha! "Green grass and daisies it is not." You crack me up! I cannot believe they were rafting in the street. Have a good break and good luck getting it all done. And sometimes, blog breaks are good.

    1. Thanks! Although I obviously failed at my blog break. I figured I'd check in once or twice more before this crazy trip of mine. I'm glad I got over my former "Must post every day" obsession. That was a problem.
