Weather is shaping up.

Today was a busy one at the office. It's only 9:30pm and I feel exhausted. I had wanted to work out during lunch, but there was too much going on, and in good conscience, I knew that if I had taken the whole hour, I would have been even further behind than I wanted to be. I know I am entitled to an hour like everybody else, but I have to admit that I do love what I do for a living.

Weather.com is now reporting that the Marathon sunday will be cloudy and between 44 and 55. This is great!

I saw a great special on PBS tonight about Marathon Running. It even had Ileana interested in running. I keep telling her to do it, even though she feels the diabetes is a major hindrance. I told her that there are scores of people who run with even type 1-diabetes. They are just careful and monitor themselves constantly.

I really do think she could be a great runner. She has the body for it. I told her tonight that with the right training she could definitely be better than me. As I have seen, the "tiny" framed women usually steal the show at these long-distanced runs.

Well that's about it. I'm uploading a song or two, and heading off for bed. I definitely need to start getting a lot of sleep now.

Best of luck in NY this weekend. Looks as though you will have some great weather.

Will you get a chance to catch any of the Olympic trials on Sat?

Thanks Derek. I need all the help I can, so I'm somewhat relieved that the weather is going to comply.

I definitely plan to watch on Saturday. I'm going to try and rest and do nothing the day before, but you know now how that goes!!
