how are you?
good.
pretty rainy out huh?
yeah.
you been running?
yeah a little. you?
no.
really? no running?
nope. not since the Red Deer half.
gawd dude, aren’t you supposed to be training for the K-100 leg 4?
yeah. work has been so ridiculous busy.
really? like how busy?
well. to cap off a incredibly silly week, I had to finish a Tender document on Friday. I took home the work on Thursday night but ended up falling fast asleep with Andrew at 8:30.
uh oh. were you late with the bid?
nope. I woke up at 1:30am Friday morning and started my day. I turned the bid in at noon Friday, 2 hours early.
wow.
yeah, it worked pretty good. I felt pretty fresh working in the wee hours of the morning and ended up having time for a hottub at 5:30 before heading into the office.
nice.
but i really started to fade after lunch. problem was I had a weeks worth of work to try and catch up on, that I pushed aside to work on the tender.
sucks.
yeah. sucks.
geez, how big of a tender is it that you spent so much time on it?
it came to 1.95 million dollars.
holy shit. that’s a lot of desks and chairs!
yuh huh!
So that’s what I’ve been up to.
You?
Hope work calms down soon and you can get those feet back out on the pavement!

ReplyDeleteMe I have been back home and now I am back in California missing home.
ReplyDeleteHope things calm down a bit for you and you can get back to running!
I've been training 6X per week. Not bragging, just saying. It's alot easier since I have no wife, no little kid, and can workout at lunch at the gym on my worksite every Tues & Thurs
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the tender! Do you get to keep the whole $1.95 million?
ReplyDeleteYou're quite the busy guy!
ReplyDeleteI've been busying myself finding excuses for not running. My latest one, and that one is really good, is that I don't want to get injured before our long trek this summer. :-)
ReplyDeleteWhat do we all need to do to get Chris K's life? Sheesh.
ReplyDeleteyou'll get out there today.
I. can. feel. it.
gawd dude, aren’t you supposed to be training for the K-100 leg 4?

but isn't leg 4 the oft-overlooked leg, only marginally less difficult than leg 5 and really deserving of a 7-8 difficulty rating?
I don't know.
yes, yes it is. Have fun with that :0) At least run a few hills this week in anticipation...
