Did my lungs shrink?

Yowza, my lungs were sooooo small today. Why does that happen?

When is it time for a new wetsuit??

What is the sign that you need a new wetsuit? Seriously, I’ve been chugging along in my suit since 2000. It reeks. It has begun to chafe under my arms. But the darned thing works really well otherwise.

Thoughts?

Virginia may be for lovers…

But the Pacific Northwest is for Runners….. Picture running on an almost-empty trail with trees and greenery. Outside it is a cool 73 degrees with blue sky and puffy clouds. As you hit your groove (for me it’s right around mile 6/7), you have the song “Bad” by U2 (the live version, of course) playing in your ears. You look up and watch a Bald Eagle soaring above your head.

Ahhhhhhh, heaven.

Salt Water in the eyes - Ouch.

Attempted to swim in Kua Bay this morning. I’m counting it because it was a ’swim’… but I had a Goggle malfunction and ended up with stinging eyes. (Salt water + sunscreen = temporary blindness) Gave up the effort after one trip out and back. Not sure of the total distance so it’s estimated here. Spent the rest of the morning basking in the sun and frollicking in the surf. There’s no ‘pie piece’ for that on Sweat365??

Ali’i Drive Sweat Box

It’s odd. Usually my legs give out before my lungs. Not today. My legs felt good but my lungs felt the size of a pea. ??? Maybe the humidity? Maybe the few days off? Who knows.
It’s just good to be able to run on Ali’i Drive again. :-) No complaints here.
