sick dog preceding transatlantic.

that's right, we have a very sick little dog. he was up off and on last night vomiting. always the gentleman, most of the time he waited until he got outside...most of the time. he is exhausted this morning, and he won't take any food (no biggie) or water (worrisome). all he wants to do is sleep, so that's what we let him do. you know he is sick when he just lays in his crate with the door open.

the timing could be better, but what are we going to do?

this very well could be my last entry for a while. if i can scrounge internet access, i'll post a little something but who knows if that will happen? minimally, i will try to check email a couple of times.... hoenischad@hotmail.com

i ran last night. decided to drive over to the ice age trail in verona and run on that out and back. ended up with around an hour (my watch says around 7.5 miles of running with only about 380 ft of climbing). i still haven't calibrated the foot pod so this could be way off...but in my mind that is about what i thought the pace was. it felt good and the only time i saw people was running through the soccer fields and when the iat coincides with the military ridge trail...otherwise i was solitary which was nice.

so anyway, i guess this farewell for a while. scandinavia, here we come!
