  • Leaving Indiana

    The second (main) part of our trip is coming to an end. Today we leave Indiana on a short road trip to Wisconsin. We’ll be at the House on the Rock tomorrow! Then Wednesday it’s back to Chicago to meet up with friends before flying out on Thursday. I miss my bed… πŸ™‚

    Just completed a 10.05 km run with RunKeeper – Fantastic run/walk around Syracuse Lake with Snook. Felt great!

    Finally got to see my dad’s new house. It’s amazing. Like a B&B!


    @Ascasewwen Spike was awesome in season 2+3 (and part of 4). If you want to keep him as Bowie, I advise you to stop there. πŸ™


    View from the porch of the lake house. The serenity is overpowering. http://twitpic.com/2a181x

    Discovered the store in Syracuse sells 750ml cans of Fosters. Ha! No, we didn’t buy any. http://twitpic.com/2a20n0


    @DianneKing Nah. I’ve tried e-readers but I prefer paper books. It’s my indulgence. πŸ™‚


    @davez1000 I don’t think I’ve ever seen it in Australia. Only seems to exist for the foreign market. Definitely not the best!


    OMG. My Dad is now on Twitter: @campcommander1.


    @kcm74 You have no idea. πŸ™‚


    Preparing for Snook’s birthday party. My Dad got him a “Mini Bomb.” (Seriously. Out-of-state fireworks FTW.) http://twitpic.com/2a4p7n

    All tucked in at my Dad and Cindy’s new lake house. It’s amazing! I absolutely love everything they did to it. Our guest room is like a B&B. Plus – a real bed! After surfing air mattresses most of the trip, this is most welcome. πŸ™‚


    HAPPY BIRTHDAY SNOOKUMS!

  • RunningBlog: Week 30

    Saturday’s race wiped me out a bit more than I expected, so my runs this week were rather slow and laboured. I was sore! Tuesday the Snook and I went for a run on country roads near my Aunt Deb’s house, but it was so hot and humid that we gave up halfway and finished the run on a treadmill in her basement. Thursday (today) was less humid, but I’m still feeling quite a lot of soreness in my lower back. My right foot has started to ache again too. I did my four miles, but it was awfully slow. The Snook joined my brother Joey on bicycles and they lapped me again and again.

    July 25: 5.04 RACE
    July 25: 3.22km run
    July 27: 6.4km run
    July 29: 6.72km run
    Total this week: 21.38km (13.36mi)
    Total in 2010: 566.74km (354.2mi)

    To meet my goal of running 1000km in 2010, I should be at 576km. I’m only 10km behind pace!
