The first thing that I wanted to do in the morning is go for my run. Since today was a holiday, I decided to drive to the lake to run. Being a creature of habit, I parked at the same place as on Saturdays. I ran the same route as last Saturday but ran to the CARA trough. How wacky was that? It was déjà vu going to the trough since I ran to the trough from the other way during the beginning running program.
Even though I was running early in the morning, it was really hot outside. I have to remember to wear sun screen on other parts of my body besides my face. I ran my 5 miles at a steady pace. It was tempting to stop at times but I kept on remembering that I needed to put the deposits in the bank so I can make withdrawals on race day. The good thing about running by the lake is that there are water fountains and bathrooms along the path. The bad thing about running at the lake is that the lake is not close to my house. It is a good thing that I ran early in the morning since it rained later in the morning.
When I got home, I did something really decadent in the early afternoon. I took a nap. That is such a rare treat for me. There is something really comforting about being in bed when it is storming outside. The rest of the day was quite boring. I spent most of the day catching up on paperwork in the office. I really hate paperwork. This is what I get for not keeping up with it.
Tomorrow will be more fun since I have an outing planned with my son in the afternoon and he has his band banquet in the evening. There is a Hawaiian theme for the banquet. I usually ignore these themed events but this year I decided to get into the spirit of the evening by wearing a special island outfit.
