77.75/80.00 goal

I had all of the excuses to not run this morning - not feeling the best, didn't sleep well, ankle feeling wonky, just didn't want to, mowing later…. I did go out for a wun - it wasn't too bad. Mile 3 was fast enough for me to count as a run rather than a walk - 14:10 min.

My neighbor, mom, and I mowed her lawn early this afternoon. I did the riding mower, so didn't count it as exercise.

When I got home, I mowed my lawn. That I did count as exercise since I don't ride for mine. Got all done at about 6 pm.

Two of my Iris are blooming today. I have a hard time getting them to bloom, so was happy to see them.

Mom has the green thumb in the family. Here are a few of her Iris. 😉 The purple one is a deeper purple than the picture shows.

Apparently I started a post several days ago, forgot to post it, then got behind. So logging several runs.

Did my first frozen hydration pack run this weekend and have mostly transitioned to sports bra only. Sigh. This spring has actually been milder than last year but summer is coming.

As requested by @tarun_yadavA here is a snake pic. These are the ones I see the most, copperheads. Venomous but not super aggressive so not really a problem unless you step on them which I try really hard not to.

169.20/140 miles completed for April

I ran a 7 mile interval run today. It was almost 9 by the time I got out, and it was getting warm, but it was a good run. It was a little after 10 when I got home. I was fixing to take my shower when I got a notification reminding me that my doctor's appointment was in 15 minutes. I knew the appointment was on the 29th, but for some reason I was thinking it was on Wednesday. Luckily, I live in a small town and the doctor's office is only .25 miles from my house. I jumped in the shower and made it there at 10:31.

I meant to post these flowers yesterday, but I forgot. I know the dandelions are "weeds", but I still think they are pretty.

@quilteryoyo Your irises are beautiful.
