Had to get my run in early. Spent the day packing my dads

my place and will be out tomorrow night. I will then spend
a few days at my parents, then we will head to Colorado on
Wednesday. Move in day is Friday. I can't wait to get there
and get unpacked and settled in. It's been a long process.

Mountain Bay Trail

6:30 am) Cloudy Humid!!!

Ran with Dan M. today. We had a nice run together he ran 5 miles
with me and then had to get going. I did an additional 4.

I will miss all the great people I have met in the Green Bay area.
Last night had a get together and they got me a nice card and
some spending money it was very nice of them. Scott D. made me
a nice marathon medal holder. I filled it up already. I guess
he will have to make me another one. The rack hold around 20
medals depending on the size of the medals. I fit 19 on mine.
I have 2 others but will not work on this rack. No room for them
anyways. I will try and get a picture on here soon of the rack.

Reforestation Camp 6:30 am) Sunny Nice!
9.75 Miles 1:20:40
Ran with Mike, Scott D and Scott L. Okay run I'm still not running
very good right now. I will be glad when the move is over and I
can settle down some.

Last night I had dinner with family as a last get together before
I move. After the meal I was surprised with a bunch of my running
buddies showing up. My brother set up this with out my knowledge.
It was a good time. I drank a bit more than I like. I got a bunch
of gag gifts from Mike. The gifts were all PINK! Like pink hat,
shorts, shoes and so on. This was his pay back for when I got him
a pair of pink running shorts for his 50th birthday. He always gives
me a hard time when I run on the treadmill instead of running in
the snow or cold. He says to me what did you run on the treadmill
in your pink girlie shorts.
So I showed up to the run this morning wearing some of the pink
gear it was pretty funny. Luckily no other runners saw me.

View from my new apartment.

Montello, Wisconsin

4 Miles 26:00 6:30 average per mile
7:00 am) mid 60's Sunny
Lets see what to do first day of being unemployed? I think
I will go for a run. I plan on doing alot more morning runs
now that I have time to do them. The run felt good but the
dew point is still high and made the run feel hard.
I'm finally feeling better physically as well the last couple
of days I have felt off. I have had a dull headache and could
not shake it.
Tomorrow I'm off to Colorado Springs for a few days to find
a apartment. I hope I find one. Then the plan is to drive out
for good on August 2nd. I have no job lined up but not too
worried about that. I have some savings saved up. I would
like to find a part time job though. Also I will continue
with my ebay sales. Should be interesting next few months!

Fox River Trail

8 Miles 56:45 7:06 average per mile
11:15 am) 80 degrees Sunny
Late start to this run because I was up very late last night.
Yesterday was my last day of work so I went out with some
friends. The run today was not very good it was hot and I
felt bad. I even stopped at mile 5 to catch my breath I never
do that. Hope I start feeling better. I'm having a hard time
getting back to normal after last week's race.
Tuesday I fly out to Colorado Springs to look for a apartment.
I'm moving there August 3. I can't wait I'm very excited about
making a new start there.
