Not much to report on the home front. Went out this morning to log 5.5 miles on a run in 27 degree air and that went pretty well. Ran a tad faster than I expected but when the sun is out and there's no wind, a cold day isn't so bad...as long as you're doing something to generate a little body heat. I'm going to register for the Trail Run at Lake Bistineau on January 30th, 10 miles of running on trails and I want to be ready to do well at that. I did it back in 2008, going 1:29:53 or about 9 minutes a mile. I'd like to knock that down to 8 minutes if possible and if the trail conditions are good.
Jonnene is doing remarkably well in her recovery from shoulder surgery. We've been out and about every day, she's done housework, walked the dog, and other things that I keep getting on her case about...I want her to take it easy and she can't seem to do that. Every night she's slept in our big easy chair with lots of pillows around to support her and I've slept on the couch next to her. Tonight she wants to try to sleep on the bed so we'll see how that goes. The chair is waiting just in case.
I've got plenty to do this week. First meeting with the Centenary cycling club for the semester. Two big graphic design jobs, one of which has to go to the printer sometime Monday, the other needs to be done as soon as the client has made up their minds. Bills to pay and a quarterly estimated income tax check to be mailed to the Feds. Some new parts for my bike and trying to decide if I want to repaint it before that upgrade takes place. Yep, lots to do. I'm only one man.
