So, I ran 25 miles today, maybe more. My Garmin 201 lost me under the trees that shade route 47 in Sunderland and Montegue. This unemployment thing could be great for my fall training.
I had a fantastic running day. I did a hilly 21 mile loop through the nieghboring towns of Sunderland, Montegue, Greenfield, and back to Deerfield. I added a run up a local ridge called Poet's Seat, and then headed through downtown Greenfield. I am pretty sure that this added about 4 miles to the run, the Garmin lost me again. Total running time, 3:34:50. Total time 3:55.
My wife Lisa got MP3 player so she can down load podcasts, books and music. I do not have an IPod, MP3, or 8 track tape player to run with. I do have a pretty good mental MP3. I listen to music in my head (and to the little men who tell me open fire-just kidding) while I run. The songs that are rolling through my brain these days are Wheezer's We Are All On Drugs, Green Day's Holiday, and song from Friday night services at Beit Ahavah.
Good news on the Job front. I have a number of people offering to help me search for a new job. One local nursery is likely to offer me a position, but is also likely that I won't take that job.
Too little money.
I have been getting the word out today that I am looking for work and email messages of support are coming in.
Keep running,
Mark
