small steps.

so whether people care to acknowledge it or not, it is spring in the midwest. temps in the 30 to 50 degree range, warm(ish) sun, dwindling snow pack and windy. i have been trying to take advantage as much as i can. riding a little here. running some there. trying to find some balance in my life...

i ran one of my 6 mile loops for the first time in a very long time - and felt pretty good doing so. following my trail race last spring i was very sore in my hamstring/prioformis area after every run. there is something to be said about a bunch of forced time off - and healing the body is one of them. it also didn't hurt that i realized my wallet was exacerbating this issue.

last night was terrible with miles. he is sick, he is teething and he is becoming more aware of his surroundings by the day. we woke up in a frenzy last night pretty much right after robin and i had just fallen into a deep sleep. it took both of us to get him calmed. he woke up again at 3:30 - a mini-version of the freak fest. man babies are hard.

happy tuesday.
