God Bless, Columbus! He was a horrid little man and someone named Amerigo got the country named after him and Leif Erikson was the first discoverer of the New World but Columbus gives me a three day weekend and for that I say, "thank you."
While that means I get three consecutive days off from work I do not get a break from running. Tomorrow is a ten miler and Monday only four. I am gaining momentum as the half marathon quickly approaches. I am disappointed I will miss getting to watch the Chicago Marathon this Sunday as I am headed to the boondocks but in my own way I'll be running my own mini-marathon. What's better than first hand experience?
Today was the first day on my bike in a number of days. Races throw my weekly schedule off since they are mostly scheduled for my off days. But another bless is television on my laptop for free, they get me through long hard biking days when I would like nothing more than to sleep.
So again, Thank you, Mr. Columbus for nothing more than being overcredited for someone else's work and giving me a three day holiday!
