Myrtle Beach

We made our usual trip down to Myrtle Beach. Steph's uncle has added a hot tub and it's a great addition. We play Man O War golf course. Plenty of water means plenty of lost balls. There were back to back island greens. Laura cracked me up. She really knows how to play her dad. She wanted to go putt putting. I asked her why trying to talk her out of it. She said "It's a tradition". So we went putt putting. It was a little cool but we had to go to the beach. I found a really awesome sharks tooth while I was wading in the water. I have to convince people that I found it. It's so cool they think I bought it somewhere.

And of course here are pictures of girls at the beach.

Ugh

So I ran today trying to get ready for the mini. I am way off of my training because of being sick. I ran 10 miles. I wanted to quit after 6. Luckily I ran way out in the country so I would have to make it home. Then after 7 miles it hurt again and I wanted to quit again. 8 was a little better. 9 was awful. I got home and hurt bad. My stomach hurt so I thought maybe it was because I was thirsty. I drank some lemonade. Then I ate some watermelon. Neither of those helped. I took a bath and then a shower and everything felt better except for my stomach. Then about an hour and a half after I got back from running I threw up. I feel better now. I'm worried about getting 13 miles in in a couple of weeks. Hopefully I'll make it.

Day off

I went golfing for the first time this year yesterday. The very first shot from the first tee went up nicely and then started to slice. It flew across the road and then hit a house. That's a great start. I also did our taxes yesterday. When I was all the way finished Steph pointed out that I had used 2007 forms for the Michigan taxes. Nothing like feeling like you're finished and then seeing you have to start over.

I'm finally feeling better

It's been a long week but I'm finally feeling better. I'm nervous about how much this may have knocked me back running wise. I hope I'll be ok. I had a weird episode at the hospital today. I almost passed out. I was there visiting a guy from church and almost went down. I had to sit down for a while. After I regained myself I had a weird line across my vision for about a half hour afterwards. I think I'm going to be ok. Weird.
