Wow, it's been a long time since I've ran. In Perushtitsa I didn't see an opportunity to run, and then last week with the time difference we were all out of whack, plus I didn't want to do anything that could increase the changes of getting sick, with Joost's visit coming up.

Joost and Ankie have left, so tonight I went for my 4.5 mile run. Went well, I took an extra walk break but I wasn't too tired. Couldn't find my watch.

A little tired and my blister started hurting again. Cut the run short.

Ran fast. Things to think about for work.

"Eh, sorry, you seem pretty tall -- would you mind helping us?", a girl near rowing ramp in Georgetown asked me. So there I was, lifting a 8-person rowing boat from a high shelf. Someone was yelling instructions so things went pretty smoothly. Heavy boat!

My run went well. Longest run in quite a while. Very sore now.

The race I'm preparing for is in a month. It's 10 miles so I have to increase my mileage, at least once a week. So tonight I did 7.2 miles, longer than I've done in a good while. I took this route: http://www.mapmyrun.com/routes/view/1471777759 which took my over Glebe, Pershing, Highland and then out to Rosslyn.

DOn't remember much but do remember I ran my usual round.

Late run, hadn't eaten yet, so a little low on energy.

It had been a while.

Finally, a longer run! It feels absolutely amazing.

Down the hill to Rosslynn, and then back up.

Or maybe more. But at least Saturday, Monday and now Wednesday. Good runs.
