It is way too early to be Sunday. This entire weekend has been screwed up and I didn't get as much done as I would have liked but I did get my laundry done and I have a pretty light week ahead of me.
Language: Today's language training was minimal thanks to the screwed up weekend I've been having. Still, I reviewed the vocab I tried to teach myself this week. About a third of it stuck and the stack is pretty thick.
Marathon: I earned the Momrine's ire today. The curses and threats she threw my way were pretty funny except that she had this look in her eye when she said them. Fortunately, she was really tired and I stayed out of arm's reach during our 7mi run. That is longer than she has ever ran before. Then I decided this week to cut her breaks down from every 10 to every 15 minutes. Then I introduced hills to her workout. We have been running on predominately flat land so far but the half-Asilomar run starts going down hill, runs along the rolling slopes of the beach, then plows uphill on Forest Street for the finish. Again, the biggest things I took away from the run were pained knees and hearty admiration for the Momrine and how hard she is willing to push herself. It was really shaky towards the end there and it took a bit of work to get her to run when she wanted to walk but she did it.
7mi on varied terrain with a walking break every 15 minutes at 1:36:38. Only eight minutes slower than the 6mi on flat, paved terrain with a walking break every 10 minutes.
Gaming: I fired up Counter-Strike: Source today. I suck.
Personal: Life is... interesting. I am really excited and confident about the future.
