It wasn’t raining when Noah built the ark.
Into training for a 10K now that I’ve actually run the 5K. Last night I ran 4.25 miles in intervals of 5 minutes running, 1 minute walking, rinse, repeat. That was a good training! Tonight was 2.5 miles but 3 minutes running and 1 minute walking. My legs is sore! Especially my thighs. Hmmm.
Anyway, I’m glad I get tomorrow off from the running! I need a day of rest. Back at it on Friday though.
This morning, I secured day permits for 4 of us to hike up to the top of Half-Dome on September 21st. Dave is in. Rizza is planning to come to California but refrain from making the ascent, although I have the permit so that if she chooses, she can change her mind. I plan ahead like that. 🙂 Starbuck likewise is not an effing mountain goat, so even if she comes down to California (not a certainty), she probably won’t be up for that particular activity. But again, I’m prepared in case she has a change of heart. I hope they both can make it. My vacation with them and Dave was about the best time I’ve had in years.
Also, I thought it would be fun, if we all got together again, to spend a day out on the lake, so I started looking into boat rentals at Lake Don Pedro.
So that week in September would involve a 10K, a day at the lake, a night camping in Yosemite, a 12 hour hike up to the top of Half-Dome, and probably a 5K for the parish festival, and probably other social stuff including a possible trip to Napa/Sonoma for some wine tasting action. Biz to the eeee!
I like planning! I feel upbeat right now. 🙂

So much to say but I’m supposed to be sleeping. But I am so excited about camping it’s not even funny. But I did just re-re-review the half dome info and I can categorically say there is no way I am an effing mountain goat either. We need a team meeting to discuss plans. Also, September is too far away. The end.
Maybe we can have a skype conference call. Video style!
Maybe we should do it in person. You two need to git ur lame selves to the island, pronto! Seriously. July. I’ll show you how it’s DONE!
