F is for Food
How do you know you've gone on a long run? Maybe it is when you're running along and can't get the thought, the image, of pasta out of your mind.
I didn't reach that point today. I guess it wasn't a true long run. But I think it was close.
On the way home from Knob Noster (a map with a bit of today's training is below), Mary and I stopped at "Hero's" in downtown Warrensburg. On the drive from the park to Warrensburg I could feel that I was beginning to lose focus. I was hungry. When we got the menus, everything looked good.
I ate, I perked up. My focus came back. Food is cool.
Helping Out
It has been about week since the Tsunami hit.
I've been writing about orienteering and feeling almost guilty about it. I guess writing about orienteering gives me a mental break. I think about orienteering and not about what's going on in the world.
Anyway, I'll put in a plug for helping out. Send some money to help the relief efforts. The main Yahoo home page has links to several organizations (Red Cross, UNICEF, AmeriCares, Oxfam and Network for Good).
