Busy summer

[cjsmith]

No marathon this year. Training is at least sixteen weeks, and each week wants one 'long run' day, preferably a Saturday so it lines up nicely with the race. That's tough to schedule. I just do not have sixteen Saturdays in a row in 2003. (NB: the Saturdays I don't have free are adjacent to Sundays and Fridays I also don't have free. Larger adjustment needed.) That's OK: half-marathon or 25K would be a wiser goal for now anyway.

All of which brings me to how busy my summer is. I drew a tiny calendar on graph paper and yellowed out the days I'm not home. The summer glows yellow. Most of my travel is along the west coast, but the jet lag stuff is creatively clustered: I get two weeks in Sunnyvale in between Maryland and Germany. In the month of July, I'm in town ten whole days, but it's that long only because the Scotland trip overflows into August. Yikes, I better write some square dance choreography in the next two weeks while I have some tranquility.

Okay, this time for sure: sleep now.

Maryland? When, praytell? I'll put it on my calendar if you're going to have any time for visiting.

Cool! I doubt there will be much time, but just in case, it's the last weekend in June.
