I did a thing I havent done in years. Felt good . Should probably edit my header ain't been 43 in a long time. And oh hey tumblr. It's been a minute.

Yup I had 8500 steps at 1130. So I went out and walked until I hit 10k. Made it with 5 min to spare!

[chrisrunsoldschool]

Lots of steps for yesterday!

This had been my nightly view for the last Month as my mom has been in the hospital. She's getting better now. Hopefully I will get back to posting soon. Lots of sadness this month.

Rip marine sgt Tom sullivan. Senseless shooting. I just dont understand ISIS. This is Tom’s brothers pub. 500 feet from where I work. They are big in my community and I hired and worked with Tom’s brothers for years. Tom’s dad and my dad worked together for 20 years. He loved serving his country. My close community morns today. We lost a good person.

1st run of the year without a walk break. Happy runners day to me. Almost didn't go but got my sorry tired ass out at 11pm and got some beautiful cool late night miles in.

[chrisrunsoldschool]

Slow but steady miles. Windy and cool. Nice.

[chrisrunsoldschool]

Decided last minute to go for a walk. At midnight. 4 beautiful star light miles. And a lawn mower in the middle of the street. at 1 am. Typical.

[chrisrunsoldschool]

Nice walk today. Wanted to run but but backs and hips and quads had other ideas. So a nice brisk walk this morning. 60 degrees. 5 miles!
