I ran a 5k every other day on my trip to California to meet my granddaughter, Avery. It was near the last few weeks of winter in Michigan and was great to getaway. I had a plan to knock off a Michigan county first thing in the morning on the 9th and then take a shower at the truck stop (finish driving to Chicago and then fly on to California. Lisa and I have not been around ANY people for the past few weeks because we wanted to make sure we were COVID-free meeting our granddaughter. Lisa didn’t want to stop at a truck stop because of this. Also, the flight was early, so that also caused an issue. I’m so glad we didn’t because we ended up getting a flat tire which caused a minor hiccup.
So I decided to do a run when we got into LA.
It looks like I have six runs done now, and it’s Saturday. I think I’ll get one or two more done before we fly out on Tuesday. The return will be rough when we get a run in Michigan again because it will be dark. Also, because of the flat tire that blew out on the way down. However, I would like to give it a try; I would love to get another Michigan County down. I have now run a 5k every other day (except for the times I do a longer run and take two days off) for one year and five months. Running this last year is by far the most consistent I’ve ever been in my life.
Monday Night Note:
I finished my 8th LA 5k tonight. It was a night run. I decided to do one tonight because we are flying out tomorrow, and I didn’t want to rush to get to the airport. Upon return, we will need to fix my tire when we get into Chicago; then we will have to head home; I’m guessing around 8 p.m. It will be a 7-hour drive home so, I don’t know if we will get another county done. I want to stop and do one, but it will be dark when Lisa and I get back to Michigan. So we’ll see, but it would be great to make this trip allow me to complete at least one lower county of Michigan.
