I did 10 miles today. I can't believe it. 10 miles! It was hot and sunny and beautiful. I stopped once to pee, once to get some water, and for a couple of lights, but otherwise I was moving. I'm totally ready for my half. 

I also discovered the solution to my foot numbness: elastic laces. I'd found the suggestion on RunningAhead and got a cheap pair on Amazon. They totally do the trick. I guess they flex and stretch with my feet just enough to keep blood flow going.

Yay for running!

I did my easy 30 minute Monday run for One Hour Runner yesterday. Gardening on Sunday wrecked my body a bit: both knees were achy and my left hamstring was TIGHT. So I taped both knees and that felt great, and just tried to loosen up the ham. Tons of gritted-teeth foam rolling and lacrosse ball action after my run. 

I have 2 definite members and one maybe for my 2015 Ragnar Great River team. Someone in my online running community told me Great River sucks and I shouldn't do it, but I'm feeling stubborn. I figure I'll try it once. 

Note to self: I need to start prioritizing at least a little PT upkeep after my runs, or I'm setting myself up.

Thing 19

I just started a free Spotify account a couple of months ago, and I'm learning my way around. It's absolutely a cut above Pandora because it lets you search for specific songs and artists and has a much larger library. I work at a music college, and I'd love to be able to give every incoming student a premium account instead of spottily maintaining a nearly-obsolete CD collection.

My real hobby--since librarianship is, at heart, my job, not a hobby--is running. There's a great community and tracking site called RunningAhead, coded by one hero of a guy and populated by plenty of running crazies. A member just used the API to code an iOS-compatible app, called RunForth. I recommend both the app and the site.
