I ran 8 miles yesterday

Yeah, that's right. I did it. Definitely could not have done it alone. Fortunately it was early in the morning and not as profanely hot as it had been the day before.
Speaking of, a team mate and I had a yard/bake sale on Saturday. It was certainly an interesting experience that did nothing to bolster my faith in humanity. It was a cross-section of society that I don't necessarily want to see again. Fortunately, the water sold well.
