What's your run?

8 mLs

easy with 4 x 4 min @ 2% incline. Not terribly steep but my legs are used to FLAT.

60 min ride.

4 miles

with half walking. I don't feel that great, sore throat and low energy. I don't have strep though! The Dr. was kind enough to swab my throat during Oliver's doctor's visit. Good news...(I hope) Oliver and I are going to live!

and

the demo's say we need to fix the health care system.
when they get done you won't see a doctor for weeks and never be sure if the test results are really yours!!! just ask Michele

Please don't

bash the Canadian health care system, eh.

The American system does a great job for the small minority of people who can actually still afford to use it.

By contrast the Canadian system does a good-to-great job for absolutely everyone in the whole country.

So take your pick. But you all see which country I chose to have medical my work done in. Besides which, I'm friends with my doctor here.

I don't have a pick

and I am friends with my doctors here.
and I never hear of Rick R or Austin T lining up in Calias to go find a doctor!
so chill out .
we all still have our choice of who we see for medical care
we either have a plan /or pay out of pocket or pay more for food /rent or taxes and call it free.

Out of pocket cost

If we pay out of pocket, it's $840 a month. Our family certainly couldn't swing it. We'd have no money left over for the hydro bill, among other things. Glad you have a great plan offered through work.

Around 5

Thinking of Bob B since it was Tuesday. Not fast miles, but happy ones.

Glad I already got my entry in to the Flattop. Yay, I've locked in a shirt!

5.1M

around town before training.

5 miles....

seawall campground-bass harbor fire department and back. After a hard day of roof repairs. We are still fixing places from all the wind damage.

Wind damage...

... ruined the Camp Beech Cliff high ropes course.

:-(

did

you get to see all the trees that fell all the way up from the lake i have photos

I didn't

as I heard the news secondhand from Ian, who was on the island climbing over the weekend and stopped in to survey the damage.

I hope we can have it all fixed for summer.

uuhh

last i knew ,it took longer than that to grow trees that big!!!

Unmerciful disaster

followed fast and followed faster

Fun 5

5 seems to be the trend of late. I got to run with Melissa and Caroline, in her stroller. Impossible not to think of Shannon when there is good company and a stroller involved. Hope you feel better soon, Ginger & Oliver. Life is good in the hood.

5 outside

And a 90 min row.

3 miles SWH

Quick run after work before it got too dark. (I say quick, but actually it was the slowest run I have done in some time!)

Speed work at the MDIHS track tomorrow!

4.5

Just to get the legs moving. Lifted and did treadclimber yesterday.

I have an odd soreness in my or adjacent to my hamstring that will bear monitoring. It's quite unfamiliar--hopefully plying The Stick will help make it go away.
