Weekly Log 7-May to 13-May-2018

Monday:  0
My usual run-less Monday.  Instead did a little bit of trail maintenance early morning on the Pumpkins Connector trail.

Tuesday:  6
Roads and beaches.  Sunny morning run.  Coming back with the sun warming my face and pleasant smell of salt air, it occurred me that I am once again lapsing into taking Westerly for granted.

Wednesday:  9
Blue Heron Loop, Dedham/Boston, MA.  Hadn't run this in a while, and suspect I won't run it again for a while as it's typically not very runnable during the summer with overgrowth, and I have less work at our Wellesley MA subsidiary of late.

Thursday:  6
Champlin trails early morning.  Drive to NY to watch Matthew and team run Distance Medley Run in the early evening.

Friday:  6
Warm sunny mid-day run on Misquamicut beach, before heading to White Plains, NY to watch Matthew run the 3200.  Had a great Japanese dinner in White Plains prior to his running.  2nd very late night in NY and drive home back to RI.  Tiring.  Really horrible traffic in western CT; can't fathom how people commute on these roads day after day.

Saturday:  0
Shad Bloom no-show.  Better a DNS than a DNF, right?  Had some car issues come up that I needed to address, and that took up most of my day.  Went to Breachway Grill (Charlestown Beach Road) for the first time in a dog's year.  Had a great meal of dayboat scallops over spinach and beet risotto.  It was awesome.

Sunday:  6
Grass run at Ninigret Park.

Weekly mileage:  34

Weekly synopsis:  Mileage lapse in the wrong direction.  Busy times between Matthew's away meets, car issues and searches all over kingdom come, and getting ready for Mark's 4-day RI visit next week.  Although it's always easy to find excuses, right?
