Carbohydrate Day.. and more

Tomorrow is my third attempt at the Indianapolis Mini-Marathon! 13.1 miles.... While I probably won't hit my original goal of 1:59:59, I am now hoping on breaking 2:14:59....

I have to be honest, I haven't been training nearly what I wanted to, but on Tues I ran 10.4 miles and it felt alright... it was slow... 10:30 pace, but I think I will be able to take it up from there.

Yesterday and today I have been battling a little bout of a stomach bug. It won't stop me but if it continues tomorrow, it could make for an extended run, with the runs... I will post tomorrow with the status of my run... If your lucky I may even be able to post from the finish area!

In other news: the house stuff is starting to get old; yes already. I know it is still early, but it is really slow... more than I expected. we have only had 1 showing and it was just a "starting to look". Part of me just wants to punt the whole idea, but the other doesn't... I don't know!

Oh, and a last note... The kids had been saving their $$ for a Nintendo Wii! Yesterday they finally got to get one. I must say, it is pretty fun! In case you don't know what it is. It is a gaming console, but with this one, you have to move. So the kids actually get a little exercise while playing... I think my arm is sore from playing last night!

Back to the grind, been a rough week at work... So Ta-Ta For now.
