Five for Friday

1.      My Public Service Announcement – Since I do travel a bit I have my account set up to send me auto-notifications to my phone, about my flights starting 4 hours before the flight.  That is great for afternoon and evening flights.  That way if I am at work I don’t have to worry about checking for updates or being rushed.  That is not so great for 7 AM flights, when your phone goes off at 3 AM scaring the shit out of you.  It wanted to tell me my flight was on time, but the departure gate changed.  Gee thanks!

2.      Stupid Termites – ruining (maybe just delaying) me getting a bike.  They will be gone as of today.  At least they were only in the mulch on the exterior.  No interior damage.  Now I am crunching the numbers to see if I still want to go forward with the bike.  Going to look at a bike shop this weekend, but still am in love with the orange bike.

3.      Running - I was able to get in 4 miles between things yesterday.  They were super easy and I think I had adrenaline to burn.  8:50, 8:46, 8:56, and 8:48. 

4.      Volleyball was a lot of fun last night.  We had a double header and the teams we were playing weren’t the best.  We won 5 out of 6 and should have won all 6, but we had a good time.

5.      Training - This weekend is my first test at a short run, then double the distance on Sunday.  I started early so I could have plenty of time to build up.  So hopefully this weekend won’t be hard, or I am in trouble.  4 miles on Saturday and 8 miles on Sunday.
