Distraction training-elliptical- Then to hospital

Event: DVOA Camp Delmont - Musser Scout Reservation
 

Walking my Dad around the halls of the hospital, where he has been since Thursday night. He told me to log this- apparently he gets up at 6am to do his "rounds" and does them 5-6 times a day despite having tubes coming out of his body! His positive attitude is so inspiring.

Tomorrow afternoon he is having surgery to fix a problem he's been having for a while that got a lot worse. Please think good strong healing thoughts for him (in between thinking thoughts about NAOC.)

LONG LIVE MAC THE WOODCUTTER!

college fields...around and around. at one point i tried to run in a heart pattern to see what it would look like on the track...didn't really work so well. guess it was the thought that counted, that was for you dad.

intention was to just walk on streets...but i couldn't help myself and did some jogging too. i hope my back doesn't pay for it later. also, wanted to go to TNT tonight but needed to do exercise before then as a way of staying awake! so tired after packing and then driving back today. did some trails today, but got off them fairly quickly after my feet felt like i was running with marshmallows strapped to them.

thinking good thoughts for my dad who isn't feeling well, and would also hate anyone to know that. too bad dad, we all love you and care about you!

Horn Pond Trails/Woods. My own private TNT...with headlamp in near dark. Had to go a bit slower due to not being able to see my footing so well. Working on attacking my biggest fear - getting lost. Purposefully went down trails I didn't know so well, ending up actually very turned around and even off trail at one point. Didn't panic...just kept running until I came to something I knew. Saw one other guy in the woods with a headlamp, his was much better than mine. Mine sucks. I need a new one. I really enjoyed running at dusk and into the dark.
