A whole bunch of nothing last week.  We go for walks when we can.  Well, Will rides his bike and usually I put Vince in the baby bjorn.  But, lately I been putting Vince in the jogging stroller.  Will flies on his BootScoot bike, so I have to walk super fast or jog to keep up.  Vince really enjoys the stroller and I can move a lot faster with it than the baby carrier.  So, I started thinking about a double jogger again.  And now that's business is up, a double jogging stroller can become a reality.

 I checked out Play It Again Sports.  Their doubles met 2 of my 4 criteria. 

1) at least 16 inch rims

2) stationary front tire

3) individual visors

4) the visors must be able to come down very low

 The one at Play It Again Sports didn't have 3 or 4.  I'm going to try Craig's list next.

 

Circuit workout: wall sit, plank, calf raises, leg lifts--abs, tricep extensions, and superman alt.

one minute each; three times

A bit hot, but not too big of a deal. I enjoyed the bagpipes that were playing.

Tuesday night at church I met Piper.  Finally, I met someone who wants to run with me!!  I was a little fast for her, but my faster pace might be because I was so excited to run with someone.  We met at 6:30 am to run on the Greenbelt.  The run was over before I new it.

Piper also has a Garmin.  Turns out all my runs on the Greenbelt (the bike trail) are about a half a mile longer than what I recorded.  I'm glad I was under-estimating rather than over-estimating.
