Half of Phil

 I've done my long 8 mile runs every week this month, one week I did 9.16 miles the inverse of Juneteenth for the Race Against Racism at work. We had about 12 people show up to walk I had gotten there early to log my miles before the heat of the day.  This week I'll bump my long runs to 9 miles for July.  Adding one mile per month should put me at 13 miles in Oct or November.  I need to look for a half marathon to sign up for in that time frame.  It'll be cooler then too which is a huge bonus. It has been crazy hot here, well not really but it sure feels that way to me, we had such a mildish spring.  Plus our AC has been on the fritz but I think we finally got it fixed on Monday.  It's much more comfortable in the house now and easier to cool off after running. So far for the year I'm 60 miles or 11 days ahead of schedule for completing 2021 miles of walk/run over this year.  I'm very proud to have not gotten nearly to my goal last week.  We traveled to Murphy f

 I missed making my 2nd May update.  Life got hectic. I've kept up with my running, I did 7 miles once a week all month for my long run.  In June I'm going to try to do 8 miles once a week for my long run.  Hopefully I can stretch myself out and run a half marathon length later this year. I'm not sure if we'll sign up for a half or just run the distance.  There are starting to be plenty of in person races.  This weekend I'm doing the Race for Racism event again for work.   Need to look at calendars and try to find another race or two to sign up.  My son came back form his injury and is looking forward to his conference meet next week. I've enjoyed having my truck.  I took it to a small car show here in town a couple weeks ago and have worked on it some in the driveway.  Got problems with parking brake and speedometer cable maybe half way fixed.  I'll keep plugging away at it though. Next committed update: 6/29
