Before & After

April running mileage: 31

I finally finished staining my peg boards and put it them use. Not sure I like how far apart we ended up hanging them but do like how the mugs look. This coming weekend is the annual area 'pottery trail'. I dragged Jason around to it last year and it was pretty fun. He even ended up winning one of the donated pieces. This year my teacher has decided not to participate ... but I will probably end up checking out at least the closer studios.

The weather has cooled off but we've still been getting out running. Starting next week we decided to start running in the morning instead of after work, mostly to spare Riley from the heat. I had a bad run earlier in the week and hit my wall pretty early, but today I felt really good and we finished in 25 min. Also the other night we found a tick on Riley so we started combing him top to bottem and in the last two days have found no less than 15 ticks! I don't know if he picked them up when we went to the preserve over the weekend or if he's had them longer. I forget how epidemic they are here ... so he has a vet appointment next week to get tested for lymes disease and get shots. Ticks are such disgusting bugs, and my scalp has been itching ever since.
