Shut down....

Well, the great race weekend in Western Maryland and West Virginia wasn't to be.

Thursday, HankTheDog came down with an cough that needed to be dealt with. After a vet appt on Friday, when it hadn't gotten any better, I canceled my plans to travel and race for the weekend and stay home to monitor him. He seems to be doing a bit better now....

Anyway, the great race weekend in West Va (Cheat Race, 5k, bike ride) turned into a lost weekend with my sleeping nearly 11-12 hours each night. I didn't do the local 5k with Team Z cause I was asleep - and missed the Sunday bike ride for the same reason. I did run Saturday afternoon but took yesterday off and did, well, alot of nothing. Hate the lost days. Idleness is the vacation time of fools - a wise man once said.

Anyway, up early-ish today and got my run in (with WeezerTheDog) first thing - to fight the inertia that was taking over. Now onto getting lots done today, hopefully, as penance for the lost weekend.

Lotsa rain lately and creeks are up. May try to get a quick paddle in on CJ creek for lunch.....
