Happy Labor Day!

Today was the perfect weather for a run!  Low 60's.  Awww!  That is 40 degrees cooler than the high for the day when I ran 19 miles.  I wanted so bad to be out there today and run my 5 miles and think wow this feels amazing.  But I still can't even walk on my foot without pain.

I went to the gym instead with Ryan.  I did do something that I am really proud of myself though.  I swam 1000 meters.  Also I swam 400 meters without stopping.  This is such an improvement for me.  At the beginning of the summer, I could only swim 25 meters in a row without stopping.  I also did 4 miles on the elliptical before swimming.

Ryan also had a great day at the gym.  He swam for the first time in over a year and also did 1000 meters.  And a lot faster than me too.  But he was a swimmer in high school.  He ran 4 miles on the treadmill before too.  I can't wait for him to do an ironman someday.

I think what helped us swim so much today is that we had a huge feast yesterday.  We went to my brother-n-laws parent's house and ate and ate.  They had so many fresh vegetables from their farm, lots of meat, and cake and cookies. Delicious!  We had a great time there.  The kids love to run around on the farm.
