Here is a link to my new running website:
http://runningforeveryone.com/
It's under construction because I just started it today, but I've already added some stuff that might be interesting to some people. I have a counter on the homepage, and I've already had 2 visitors, although I think I might have been the first one.
Anyway, it's a fun new thing for me to spend time on. I like the look of it and it was really easy to build using a website builder called (ironically) easysitebuild.com--which I recommend if you want or need to build a website. They are awesome and have great customer service.
Bill and I ran 11 miles this morning. We started a little late (8:30) considering the heat, but we made it. Not sure, but I think it's over 90 degrees today. We did the "cemetary to cemetary to cemetary." If you are familar with where I live, you may know that there is a cemetary about 2 miles northwest of our house (on Fletcher) and a cemetery about 1.5 miles southeast of our house (on Kimball). Running back and forth between cemetaries means that we can stop at home, get water, and use the restroom if needed. It's worked well for long runs recently.
When we got back from the run, we got big 'ol sodas at Kwik Trip. My favorite is the 1/2 Cherry Pepsi, 1/2 Diet Coke with cherry and vanilla syrup. Bill has some concotion with cherry syrup, Diet Mountain Dew, and regular Mountain Dew. I love fountain pop at Kwik Trip because you can add the syrup, thus probably tripling the calories, but usually I don't care much about that after I run (maybe I should). They also have some slushies that I am usually tempted to get. For some reason, I thought I would grow out of my love for slushies and similar semi-frozen drinks, but they really do appeal to me even as an adult, especially on hot days.
Bill and I watched a great documentary last night called "Pressure Cooker." It's about a culinary arts program at an impoverished high school in Phillie. We watched it through Netflix. Highly recommended if you are looking for something inspirational. You can learn more here:
