Last night I fixed our dryer by replacing the timer. Now this is really good stuff on its own as I saved us quite a bit of $$ by figuring out how to do it myself. But the reason I am putting it here is because I was really excited about it last night and kept mentioning how proud of me I was. Then Ruth had a good point. She said "I think you did a terrific job with the dryer but it is interesting that you find that to be such a huge accomplishment when you accomplish so much with your training and racing -- but do not give yourself even a fraction of the credit for it." Hmmm. Something to think about...

We slept in this morning and I decided to head across the bridge to beat the traffic for work and get in my hill workout at lunch.

I started the run with a tummy ache that I could not shake even when I slowed down to a barely moving jog. But once I started the intervals, all was good. I picked a hill that is a bit deceiving as you think you have crested it long before it is over.
