my 10 miler for the day was interrupted by a doggie who broke off his toenail really really low, which caused quite a lot of blood.  I took a lot of time this morning trying to stop the flow, but it just wouldn't stop.  So I had to take him to the vet and drop some coin (eating out money for the next month or so) on sedation and some vet expertise.  Then I took my son to the doc to get his 3 weeks checkup since being diagnosed with Lyme disease.  Well, my wife and the appointment lady apparently got mixed up and we didn't have an appointment - and Sawyer's doc wansn't even there today.  So we drove home...  Which actually turned out well.  Cause my wife had to work from 6:45 -8 or so.  So I got in my run - abbreviated and all- before she had to leave (to the minute).  I was at an up tempo.  Not sure what that pace really is but on that route it is a dang good workout.  Got stopped for traffic crossing for a min so that helped the last uphill mile.

At least I got one in and it wasn't a goose egg for the day.

That was a rambling entry for me -wasn't it?
