Last Week:
- Monday – Though I ran on Sunday, I wasn’t sure if I would get any more runs in for the rest of the week so I ran from work, around UAlbany and back before meeting an old friend for dinner and drinks.
- Tuesday – Off to Rochester for work (4 hr drive). I didn’t think I’d have time to run. But when there’s a will, there’s a way. I asked around the hotel and found my way to the Erie Canal. Loved the run. Wish I had more time but had to meet someone for dinner.
- Wednesday – Worked all day and then drove home (in the rain). A tiring rest day.
- Thursday – Another rainy day. I went to the gym after work. When I was finished, it had stopped raining so I went for a quick run before it started raining again.
- Friday – Of course, the day started out raining but it was a scheduled rest day. Played mah jongg in the evening.
- Saturday – Decided to get in a run on my way up to (Chestertown) Schroon River to spend the weekend with my tennis friends.
It was warm and humid but dry. But it rained in Chestertown. So my friends hadn’t played yet and I arrived there in time to play tennis with them.
Had a great day of eating, hiking, sightseeing, etc.
- Sunday – Some of the tennis ladies left and others arrived. We had another great day of tennis and hanging out by the river.
17.5 miles done with 4 runs and 3 rest days

Happy Running! How is your running going?
Love all the fun time you got to spend with your friends! We’ve been getting afternoon/evening thunderstorms and rain, but luckily not in the morning, so I can still run. Keeps everything nice and green, at least?

Many rest days are anything but restful . . . gotta do what you gotta do.
It’s nice you were able to squeeze that run in in Rochester.
