Started out later than I wanted, was already pretty warm (around 80).  Ran 3 miles to a park where I could loop through trails through the woods that are shaded.  I also like the park because I can fill up on water or take a potty break if needed.  Saw one of my students' father.  He was saving a pavilion for a birthday party to be held later today.  If I knew him better, I would have asked for one those huge chocolate chips cookies he had on a tray:)  

Running back to my car from the park was difficult.  I was really hot and had no shade for 2.5 miles.  A couple of times there was shade created by a cloud ahead of me, but each time I tried to catch it, I was too slow.  

When I got  home, I kept up the sweat by doing yard work.  Finally got in the shower around 6:00.  Nice to have my feet up now.  Going to my daughter's for a cook out tomorrow... yummy!

You had a good week of running and working out. Hope everything is getting better with Little Harvey.
