Running in the extreme heat and humidity with K2 in Tunxis.
The back is still sore (from the pump station effort manipulating a large breaker on July 22nd), to the point of bothering my hips as well. Completed a difficult 3.5-miles.
Worked a "late" shift of 3 p.m. - 6:00 p.m.
Walked Lily in the evening, 1-Mile.

A blast from the past....
Savoy General Store Marathon
July 28th, 2005 - Savoy, Massachusetts
Tippi and I ran the Savoy General Store Marathon. It was lengthy, over 29-miles I believe. From Haskins Road to the General Store, which brought us all the way over to Windsor Jambs, we had the company of "Max", a friendly dog we picked up at Loop & Haskins intersection.
Tippi along the trails of Savoy, 2005.
Oddly, each time we came to an intersection on the trail, "Max" knew which way we were planning on turning (even though he lead). He managed this for 9 - 10 miles.
Total for the day was roughly 29 - 30-miles in 6:17:52. It was my 29th completed marathon, and Tippi's 3rd. After finishing, I met Jane Phinney in the Savoy Town Offices; she is the Savoy Town Clerk and is the author of "Taking the High Road".
