June 23

Today we stayed up late to catch lightning bugs. Daddy and Emma put them in her bug catcher for a few minutes and then set them free. She had a lot of fun running around the yard in her pj's. Today was cross training day for the marathon and I broke my bike out of the garage for the first time in about 6 years. Last time I rode I had a bike wreck and Dave took it away from me. I rode it around for about 30 minutes and man is that a lot harder than I remember. When we were kids we rode all day and thought it was fun. Now it is a lot of hard work. I rode up the big hill at the end of the street and was huffing and puffing and my legs were on fire! Well tomorrow I rest and we run 3 miles again on Wed. Wish me luck!
