No go in Idaho

Had to cancel my trip to Idaho this weekend. Mom is clearly on the mend but we both agreed she would be more comfortable if I stuck around town this weekend. No worries, I'm still on track to finish up all 50 races by September 2011.

I had a long weekend in Florida this past weekend with my friends Rachel D., her daughter Karen M. and her daughter Michele M. We had a great time in spite of the 95 degree temperatures. Unfortunately, I didn't run once while I was down there. Even at 6 am the temperatures were just too unbearable for any strenuous exercising.

Today I finally got out and hit the pavement for a little while. It was a miserable run. Between the heat, humidity and overall laziness on my part, I don't have anything positive to say. I looked for a local race for tomorrow but I think I'm going to have to motivate myself in the morning to get out and try for 5 miles.

Good luck to Michael, Katy, Karen and especially Steve as they take on the Idaho Falls Scenic Classic tomorrow. I'm expecting some medals!!
