Day 21

 

It looks like me and the mountain biker and the deer have been undeterred by the wet. 

My shoes took most of the day to dry yesterday and today I think they are just going to be wet. 

I might start wearing different shoes for different activities. 

I saw this cute snail on my hike this morning. 

Lots of puddles and running water and bird song kept me company. 

The rain really got going today. It rained from about 9 am throughout the rest of the day. 

I think it’s quite possible that tomorrow I will not manage a dry workout. 

My feet never really dried all the way out today and it made me cold and tired. 

When I got home I shoved off all my duties to my family (unusual) and took a hot bath. 

I did go back down to cook after I warmed up and after dinner did my Pilates. 

It was rough tonight. 

I felt stiff and tired throughout. 

But I did it. 

I did get an exciting new piece of gear to try out. 

This is my new running vest. 

It has a 17 oz silicone bottle and it fits very well. 

I’m hoping is solves 2 of the camelbacks biggest problems. 

The first is that the camelback slides around when it’s empty and near empty, the next is that the water tastes weird. 

I should get a new water bladder for it but I keep forgetting. 

I’m a huge enjoyer of gear. 

I drank well today 3 green teas and a kombucha plus about 70 oz of water. 

I read more about vegetables. 

I’m out of blanching and into saute. 

So far so good.
