Mmm Hmm

I don't really have anything spectacular to write about, but today is the last day to get a post in to keep up with the two post a month goal...

This weekend I was finally able to get my motorcycle up to Mankato. We had a couple days in a row of good weather, but the next few days are going to be pretty ridiculous for May. Soon enough though it will be nice enough to ride on a daily basis. I am still getting used to the bike being so much bigger than my last one, but I think it will all be good with a bit more experience on the bike. I'm currently looking into getting a new front tire which looks like it's going to set me back a sizable chunk of change.... sigh.

On Saturday I ran my first 5k race of the season. It went fairly well. I finished in 28:43, which is slower than the first one I ran in October, but given the abrupt change in weather and my lack of reconditioning in the warmth (it was in the upper sixties. A lot warmer than the 40-50s I have been running in) I'll take it. My foot and ankle have been fairly ok, but I'm still going to have to take it easy. The short run I went on tonight seems to have brought back some of the old pain. However, since it's going to rain and or snow for the next five or so days, I won't be running and it can get the rest it needs.
