Trail Run

This morning, Sherry (our TNT coach) treated us to a five mile trail run. I have the hardest time navigating through those woods! I'm always looking down to make sure I don't trip over a tree root and then miss the turns! What's worse is that my glasses kept getting foggy but without them I was REALLY in trouble. Maybe I should try contact lenses again. So many things to ponder! Well, I made it through the five mile course without breaking my neck so I'll call it a good day. I was always the last one in the group, but most of the folks are experienced runners. The trails did get me thinking that maybe it's time to buy some new toys. My brother (Carl) has been raving about a new Garmin GPS computer that he bought recently. It comes with a heart rate monitor so it can track heart rate, distance and pace simultaneously. Plus, you can connect it to your computer afterwards and check out how you did. Nothing like a new data source! I'll give it a try.

Today is also Joshua's birthday. I stopped by the store on the way home and got him a few balloons so that we could have a festive setting for the ceremonial present opening. He seems to be happy with everything and we topped it off with lunch at Superior Grill. Now Mama's happy too!
