Started off with a 9 mile run up to the horse ranch place that I stumbled upon in the canyons. Not a lot of cars which was nice but a good amount of horse dung which was not good. Ran in a pair of shoes that happened to be pretty old and didn’t see one of the piles so that was an awful 30 min run back to my apt. Luckily, it was trash day so the dumpster was right outside and I, very quickly, added my shoes to it. Now it was a pretty warm day so I decided to take my shirt off before the run. It was one of my favorite running shirts because it was given to me from a friend who runs for the same track club as one of the best American distance runners in the country, Ryan Hall. And the shirt was the team’s logo. Anyways, I tied the shirt to the bannister next to the stairs going out of my apartment and when I returned after tossing my shoes away, the shirt was missing. There happened to be some repair men working on the apartment and I asked if they saw it. They said they did…about 20 minutes ago until someone came along and took it. I asked if they saw who took and they said yes but didn’t know who it was. Awesome!

Then I came up to the apartment, shoeless and shirtless, and wanted to take a shower. I checked my phone and saw that I had a text from my building manager. He wanted to inform everyone that there would be men working on a leak in the building so the water had to be shut off. No shower for me.

So I decided to make breakfast. After spending about 20 minutes on a pineapple and bacon chicken sausage, egg, cheese, peppers and pesto breakfast sandwich, I was ready to transfer it over to the bagel. As I was lifting it with the spatula, it slid right off and onto the ground. Normally (not saying this happens a lot), I would just wash it off and continue on. However, the water was still shut off. So I may or may not have wiped it off with a paper towel and continued to put it on the bagel. It may or may not have still been very good.

After breakfast, I rubbed my legs down with Bengay. I had to answer my phone and forgot about having some bengay on my hands still. Ended up touching my eye and getting bengay in it. Quick! Run to the sink and wash it out…oh right….no water still. Have you ever had bengay in your eye? I do not reccomend it. So yeah, awesome morning.

Ran 5 miles in the afternoon. Some tightness in the lower ab area but nothing to painful. 14 total on the day. In the canyons tomorrow.
