| Was planning to run mile repeats, but when we got started the stinky sicko family arrived. 2 of the boys were coughing their lungs out. Not wanting to take a chance on getting sick 1/2 week before going on vacation, we ran away. |

| Hill workout at the barn at Bald Hill. 30s running, 30s bounding, 60s running, 30s bounding. With walk recovery inbetween. 3 sets of these. It only works out to about 7.5 minutes of hard effort, so will have to shorten the recovery in the future to squeeze more in. |

| Rode to work via the post office with a giant package under my arm. It was very awkward and spooky when I zoomed down a hill with a left turn at the bottom. Had to do some circles at the light because it was too difficult to stop and get started again with my high seat and bike shoes. Then rode home at the end of the day. |

| Rode to work and home. Flushed a pheasant in a field on the way home. Didn't get a super good look at him--just heard his cackle and saw his golden body just has he landed in the bushes. |
Sunday Mar 12 |
| Running 1:18:00 [1] | |
| shoes: Brooks Beast Gray sz 10 |
| Ran with Paula and Annie at Lewisburg Saddle. Just did the basic loop with no added distance. Paula was running so strongly that we wanted to see what her time would be. Fixing her anemia problem has done wonders for her fitness! |

Thursday Mar 9 |
| Running 1:00:00 [1] | |
| shoes: Brooks Beast Gray sz 10 |
| Ran with Paula and Annie in the inch of snow at Bald Hill. The snow made the running nice and soft. Paula thought she saw a bobcat, but she said it had a tail. Bobcats do not have a tail. I followed the tracks into some deep brush, and could see his dark blob of a shape back in there looking at me, but I couldn't make out any details. I was hoping that maybe it was a young cougar and not a humongous house cat. Wasn't able to confirm what it was, but at least the snow made it possible to see its tracks (about silver dollar size) and his shadowy form. |

| Ran with Paula and Annie at Marymoor Park in Redmond, Washington. Ran on the grassy areas and made our way over to the off leash area. Pet as many dogs as would let us. As I mentioned elsewhere, the whole time "I Will Follow You" from Sister Act was playing in my head. |
