Laundry.

I jinxed the morning thing by writing that post. The roommate got sick and I got sleepy and we haven't gone since.

In other news, sunshine. SUNSHINE is here! I went for an epic 15-mile run on my day off (a few days late per my training schedule, but epic nonetheless). I parked at Huckleberries, a natural food store far enough from my house that I didn't have to retrace the paths I always, always run. I then embarked on the most pleasant 3.5-mile uphill trek you'll find--it follows a bluff overlooking some green stuff and expansive storage units southwest of Spokane.

I followed the suburban maze back down to the shop, then scooted (drove) to the start of the Centennial trail to meet my runner friend. The encouragement was much appreciated at that point; my legs may be unbelievable, but they've been known to start whining around the 10-mile mark.

Soccer practice followed, and we were lucky enough to find a bunch of dudes wanting to play a mini game against us. I'm sure they thought I was supremely wussy when I started doubling over with exhaustion 15 minutes in, but whatcha gonna do?

In summary: I got a sunburn. I met my mileage goal. I played some soccer. I did not get any laundry done.
