2 in the stroller, 2 on bikes, muddy around the pond, with heavy rain thrown in.  Still felt great with no shirt on.

BST to Freedom Hills with a boost up the steep hill from my daughter.  It was mid-day, somewhat warm.  I ran pretty hard, trying to make it home in time for a 2:00 appointment.  Didn't quite make it.

6 on the treadmill with the baseball game to watch.  Me and the mill are not friends again yet.

With Gabriel in the dark.  It felt very good on a cool moonless night.  8:40 pace; I blame the stroller.

Out and back to the Farmington Pool Drinking fountain.  I bid on some silent auction items at a benefit in the park, but never got called back, so I must have been too much of a cheapskate.

Evening run with jack, one earbud on the ALCS, one ear listening to endless charming prattle.

I am so slow.  9 minute pace on BST to freedom hills.  With a couple miles left, it got pretty challenging.  I was listening to the Cubs/Mets, and I was tempted to call for a ride.  Maybe the tennis before took a lot out of me.

I dragged the 4 younger kids to Jennie P.  They played at the park while I ran laps around the park.  A youth football team was practicing.  While they sat in the shade for 10 minutes taking a break, one of them started smack talking to run faster.  I enjoined him to join me and try to keep up.  By then next lap, their practice had resumed, so I didn't get to have the head to head battle for which I yearned. 

Jack fell down and scraped up his face.  I was going to say broke his crown, but he was wearing a firehat.  Gabriel wore a tutu.

I spent the day doing chores around the house.  By 11 pm, I was pretty done, but wanted to enjoy the perfect night, so I ran to Smoot and back.  Roads were pretty quiet.

Locally organized fundraiser 5k, 70 participants, including my wife.  I found my way to second place by the half mile mark, and kept pace with the winner the rest of the way; he won by 4 seconds.  I couldn't mount a challenge.  I'm comparitively out of shape to the 50mpw version of myself.  I'm fine with it right now, though.  It looks like challenging 45 minutes for the turkey trot 10k will be a good goal.  Russ is going to kick my butt.
