My youngest daughter is a college graduate!!!! And I am one proud mom.
I had a really busy weekend getting her party ready and taking mom to her graduation and just enjoying her accomplishment with her. Not much moving happened, but I can make that up on other days.
Added 4.75 miles for a May total of 17.75 miles.

I hope everyone had a great week. It is totally bananas how we went from snow, cold temps, and freezing rain early in the week to 87° in parts of the Midwest this weekend.
May 1-7,
Walking = 13.8 Miles.
While I didn't get many steps in this weekend, I did get a lot accomplished. I thinned through my dresser and closet. Took six hours but two yard & leaf bags full of clothes, shoes, pocketbooks, etc taken to the Goodwill, laundry done, floors vacuumed/swept, and general spring cleaning. Also weeded the new lilac bushes.
This weekend will be when we (meaning I) go through DH's closet and dresser. I swear to the gods, that man has more clothes and shoes than I do and he never throws anything away-so it will be a challenge. Also, have a plan to replant all of our peony bushes that we discovered being crowded out by the lilacs.
Have a great week everyone and make sure to wear plenty of sunscreen and a hat.

We have another night of frost warnings out and the furnace on.
@Leanz: I run with gloves on. The colder it is the thicker the gloves. Sometimes mittens over gloves. When it is really cold, I wear wool and slip hand warmers in. Saturday, I left my gloves in the car and was grateful for sleeves with thumb holes to keep some of my hand warm.
Sadly many marathoners in corral D yesterday did not get an official time because they started so late and the city had a time when they had the wagon sweep. The books said 14 mile pace but because they got out late. They shut them down. Many running club members finished without an official time. A real disgusting thing to do 26.2 miles and be told it's not official.
May 8: Adding 13 miles of walking 6 and cycling 7 miles.
TTD: 110.44 miles

With you all talking cold temps I have to tell ya we've been quite warm here in northeast Montana. Upper 80's to 92* on Saturday. It was SUPER windy too. I've taken all of your suggestions of being cautious with my knee so since last Wednesday I've covered 23.25 miles and most of that has come from my ex bike. Went back to work today & my knee was just a little tired when all was said & done..I'm about to go ballistic not getting in some sort of high intensity workout!! I sooooo want to HEAL!!!! I get stitches out Friday & I hope to hear some very positive words!

8th: 4.5 miles, purposeful walking- MTD 40.94
We had a fabulous day today at the park today with our eldest grandson (nearly 2.5 years). We'd hoped to take both boys, but the younger one (2.25 years) has a viral nfection and was hot and listless, poor lamb. The temperature has been pleasant, but with a bitter wind (when it was noticeable) and risks of frost at night. The news is full of how dry April was and the impact it's had on rivers and reservoirs.
@Leanz - we don't get as cold as it does in some of the places represented here, but I wear 'thinsulate' gloves. If it's really cold I wear lining gloves (like skiers have).
@djmicheals - that sounds like a lot of industry, and good look to clearing 'his' wardrobe...
@kar328 - I set off too quickly too, then risk burning out. I'm trying to learn to run off the pace on my watch in an effort to slow down at the start.
@taxmom9093 - lots of reason to be proud, with the bonus of your mum being well enough attend too.

@CLEPANT - That is AWFUL what they did that to those poor runners!!! Wow, all because the organizers were not prepared and.....well....organized enough!!
Hopefully something gets done so that never happens again!
