Wow, it is 76°F with sunshine!!! What in the actual world... It's like summer time.
- This morning I ran ~16 miles, which included probably 2 miles of walking interspersed. I was scheduled to do 13, but I was also supposed to do 18 last Friday and did a big fat zero! So I wasn't sure what to do exactly. It was not one of my better runs, but I survived. It was hot! Next Friday calls for 19 miles. Ugh.
- I'm thinking of doing a 4x4x48 run challenge later this year. Apparently it was popularized by a guy named David Goggins. The idea is: every 4 hours you run or walk 4 miles over a 48-hour period (for a total of 48 miles). I may do that instead of a fall marathon, but I'd like to read up on it a little more before making any kind of commitment.
- We are babysitting the 3 grandkids who live nearest us (and their dog) overnight tonight. The one boy has basketball practice tonight, and the girl has a basketball tournament (in Warsaw) tomorrow, so we'll be hopping about - plus feeding their chickens on the farm. Should be fun!
- And, speaking of the grandkids, I was asked if I would baptize the 3 of them at our church a week from Sunday. It sort of melted my heart, if you know what I mean. So I need to brush up on all that! :)

Alrighty then... have a safe and smart St. Patty's day, friends (as I sip on a Guinness myself). ;)
