Atrial flutter. I’m okay to keep running as long as I keep my heart rate down, but it looks like surgery is in my future. (579 consecutive) [2829] #AirWreckRuns
My flight had me sitting down in a cramped seat for four hours. My muscles were not happy with me and I was very tempted not to run. But the run went well. In the mountains with hilly conditions, but much cooler. Pace was faster than I expected. (581) [2831] #AirWreckRuns
I haven’t had a haircut since January. Today I finally got one. I feel lighter. I hope I look good. (I will take “fishing for compliments” for $100, Alex!) (582 consecutive) [2832] #AirWreckRuns
I’m doing my runs in the evening still, but this far north there is still time to see the sunsets. And the mountains make the clouds look so much more impressive. (583 consecutive) [2833] #AirWreckRuns
A run at high noon and I’m actually having my fastest run of the trip. (Also cooler today.) My pace was actually better than some recent Houston runs, despite having hills to deal with. (But also not having a running stroller.) (584 consecutive) [2834] #AirWreckRuns
The run today was an unremarkable “flower run”. But in the morning we took The Ballast to Forget-Me-Not Pond and Elbow Falls to see Canada (Rocks and Trees and Water). She was more interested in walking the dog. (585 consecutive) [2835] #AirWreckRuns
It looked like this fellow was trying to cut the grass of the entire field with a single lawn trimmer. Ambitious? Fraternity hazing? Just dumb? It doesn’t look like it will go quickly. (586 consecutive) [2836] #AirWreckRuns
13°C when I ran. Lovely temperature. I feel like I can go fast despite the hills. I want to push it. But I have to watch my heart rate.
If you consider the heart your spirit, you can say “The flesh is willing, but the spirit is weak.” (587 consecutive) [2837] #AirWreckRuns
I’m still recovering from vacation, so I wanted to go to bed early, but a sudden evening rain shower made my run even later than usual. But with the later departure, I was able to surprise two wild pigs. Or they surprised me. Nobody was relaxed. (589) [2839] #AirWreckRuns
I was wondering if my pace would be better back in Houston because it is flatter. It does not appear that way. So even though the hills slowed me down in Canada, the cooler weather helped speed me up. (590 consecutive) [2840] #AirWreckRuns
It is the age old dilemma: when you go grocery shopping in the middle of a run, do you pause the run timer or keep it going? I feel the ethical way is to keep it going, but it does make it look like you are a very slow runner. (591 consecutive) [2841] #AirWreckRuns
Due to scheduling, I did my run earlier with The Ballast. I was trying to avoid the rain, but we got hit by it towards the end. Thankfully we got home and in shelter before it really started coming down. (592 consecutive) [2842] #AirWreckRuns
A surprisingly nice run this evening. It was a cool 25°C and, for a change, I didn’t get sprayed by any water sprinklers. (593 consecutive) [2843] #AirWreckRuns
