Running:
Been a normal week back for the most part. I have developed a pain at times in my right foot. I've been terrible at self diagnosis before, but I'm quite certain I've developed a bunion on my right foot. It's most noticable with my newest pair of shoes. They fit OK, but there is a piece of overlay right over the bunion area that makes them feel tight when running. Most of the time with other shoes with the exception of running fast or up a hill there is no pain at all. I'll likely get in to have it checked out next week. Nothing that has impacted the length of any run to this point. Catching up on my runs since last Monday. All my runs this week were during my lunch break at work. Tuesday I did my hill repeat workout. Eight repeats along with the trip out and back for 7.5 miles total. The next three days I ran my 7.5 mile Springdale loop. Each day successively faster. Wednesday I ran it in 1:3:44, Thursday 1:0:55, and today 59:12. My total for this week so far is 34 miles.
Hunting:
I pulled down my hunting ladder from the back yard. Just took it down to keep it out of the elements for a few months. I still have a couple stands in the woods over on my bow hunting property. I will get these out over the next couple weeks too. The food plot I put in late last summer is growing like crazy now. I thought all the plants would have died. They are mostly turnip like plants or "brassica's". I'll have to just till them all under I guess as I don't think they will be edible to the deer over the spring/summer. On the other hand they might just keep the weeds down if I leave them there for a while.
Gardening:
So much to do, but not much time during the week to get anything done. I really need to get into my pond and get the plants under control this year. I might just do that this weekend. This morning I saw a pair of Great Blue Heron's in the back yard. They really have quite a unique call are are cool to see. Just not in my yard. I scared them away, but I suppose they found their way in to eat some frogs and fish while no one was home today.
