It's been awhile. Mostly life has been really busy but I guess the real reason I haven't written is because I was trying to get over some negative thoughts. Thoughts that I didn't want to spill over here. But we can't have everything.
Anyway, my half marathon running season is over. All in all it went OK. I peaked about a month before the race and then got hurt. But I managed to make it and finish the race. It was OK. I had knee issues and had to walk part of the way. I finished and that was the only part I cared about. Had a fun race weekend hanging out with my real runner friends. Hey these girls run marathons and have even done an Ultra. The weekend was good.
My knee was a bigger problem than I thought. The day after the race it was really bad. I went to the doctor just to make sure I hadn't done real damage. It seems to be ok but we may need to check out my feet.
Last week I finally tried to run again. It was slow going but the knee held up OK. It was a bit sore moving initially but finally warmed up.
This week I played tennis. It was fun playing again. It has been a few years since the last time I played. Some of my friends have issues with ball sports. They say they don't play with balls. I like ball sports. Pretty much all of them. My favorites are tennis and volleyball. Softball and racquetball would be next. The problem with balls sports is you need somebody to play with you. I am the Lone Trudger for a reason. Right now it's hard to consistently exercise with others. That's why trudging works for well for me. It's something I can do alone.
One day that will change. I just have to remember that.

Playing with them is okay just don't put them in your mouth.
You've gotten me nostalgic for batmitton and croquet,the games of my childhood....games that require a secondary object to hit the balls with.
