Coming through. How do you do?

First day of soccer practice, 2010.
We proceed. Missing Chris on our runs, is currently side-lined by a hip injury. The summer draws to a conclusion, we prepare for school, for work. The weather is very pleasant.

Dug up photo from my daughters first practice with Rec Soccer, from nine years ago. Today is the high school team's first regulation game. The girl, now a junior, is in as goalie. Should be a real barnburner.

Distance: 4 miles
Duration: 32:40
Pace: 8:09
Route: Forest Hill Loop
Temperature: 73°
Climate: bright, sunny & humid
Mood: good
Stretches: yes
Water: yes

Big appetite yesterday. Burger and fries for lunch, the boy and I went to the Feast of the Assumption of cavatelli, cannoli and Coke, and before bed I consumed a slice of pizza. That last was a bad idea, I was up half the night with my stomach burbling. Had to get up and drink water and chew a few Tums. At least I didn't get a salt-induced headache. 

Baseline: 179.5 lbs.
Today: 168.5 lbs. (+5.0)
Goal: 160 lbs.

Listening to The Current this morning, "Teenage Kicks." And so should you.
