Back on Track

so that's a full marathon in a week: 26.2 miles in 3:48. granted that's over 4 days, the important thing is that i'm back on track. today's long run was supposed to be on ly 11 miles, but i was feeling pretty good just to get out, i ended up doing 12.2 miles, again, the most i've ever ran continually in my life!
the day was going to start with our usual "sunrise surprise", breakfast at the beach waiting for sunrise, but it that was 86'ed when my wife discovered that our daughters were infected with head lice, and it was downhill from there. i didn't realize it would take a whole day just shampooing, brushing, and cleaning their hairs, and that was with my wife's cousin helping her. plus the fact that now we have to wash all the clothes, linens, etc.; vacuum and steamclean the carpets; disinfect the beds, pillow, couches, etc.; soak the brushes; bag everything else. holy cow, it's a whole weekend; which means, i'll missed the long ride tomorrow. but hey, i got to do my long run, so i can't complain too much.
