Day Off

I was sad to miss the Hartsdale run today.  My ankle has been bothering me since last weekend's 16 miler and my coach recommended that I skip the long run today to give it a chance to heal.  So instead of completing my planned 10 miles, I took to the gym instead and spent a significant amount of time on the bike and strider.  The time dragged without my running buddies!  It sounds strange, but it was hard not to run this morning.  I haven't missed a weekend run since May!  Anyways, hopefully the break, along with lots of icing and ibuprofen, will help heal my ankle before the 18 miler next Sunday. 

I'm about to start working on my last blank canvas for the Brooklyn Indie Market- it's tomorrow!!!  I'm really excited to see how it goes, and how much closer it will be bring me to my fundraising goal!  I have only 2.5 weeks to go to raise just over $1,000.  Here's a pic of my latest painting- 'Parrot tulip', acrylic on canvas, 10 x 10".
