Better than Coke or PB&J

First, CONGRATULATIONS to Mike for winning his 5k this morning. Rock on!

I did a nice four-mile hike this morning with a friend. It was perfect - cloudy, beautiful, peaceful. Dreamy, even :)

I received a phone call this afternoon asking me if I was still available to volunteer at OP 50 next month. You bet, I said! I will be at the 33-mile aid station; I'm so excited! When I told Jeff, he said, "Nothing like a little package of enthusiasm at mile 33. Better than coke or pb&j!" *grin*

Further planning reveals that I don't need to run Monday or Wednesday next week. To up my miles smartly, I need to run 12ish miles next week:
Monday: basic hatha in the evening
Tuesday: 5.5 flat on the river path in the am, hatha flow in the evening
Wednesday: total rest
Thursday: basic hatha in evening
Friday: 2 to 3 Friday at lunch
Saturday: 5 with Kiera before Ash and I leave for Mesa (for my mom's birthday)
Sunday: total rest

Angie, you're a dynamo!
Wish your mom the best on her special day. But, please also tell her thank you for giving us all the 'present' and privilege of knowing you on this blog!

Angie,

Nothing better than a smile and an assertive aid station volunteer to help you feel better about the miles ahead. You are a race directors dream! Have fun, can't wait to see pictures and read your report!

Angie you are way better than Coke and PB&J :) Should be a fun time!

That Jeff! He's right, of course. Your ebullience is not only contagious but craved two-thirds into a 50-mile race. The race directors are fortunate to have you there.

You ROCK, Angie!

Looks like you have a full week planned. Enjoy the rest days and mom's birthday.
