Weekly Report

My highest mileage week since the 2nd week of the year!  A whopping 12 miles!! It was also the most runs I’ve done in one week, 3.  Thanks in large part to the warmer weather and having a 4 day weekend!  I was able to run on Weds, Friday, and Sunday.  The weekday runs were easy 3 milers, while Sunday was with the guys and a little longer.  I was also able to sneak in a trainer ride on Saturday while Nadia slept.

We had some nice warm temperatures, right before we got another round of snow. The warmth was nice, though it made for lots of puddles and eventually ice.  I won’t complain though.  Without the week of warm weather the 13 inches that we just got would have been ridiculous!  The Twin Cities are quickly approaching a record year of snow fall.  The record is 98.6 inches and we are well over 70, with March producing an average of 12 inches.

I also finished my latest book, The Spanish Bow.  Mostly fiction, but with some historical underpinnings, it was a somewhat long novel starting during the Spanish American War and ending in the 1970’s.  The author followed the life a young cellist from his poor upbringing, to playing for the Queen, fighting for the Spanish Republic and surviving World War II in France. If you like music or history this is a good read.   I’m at 3 books for 2010.
