Long Time

Wow, it's been a long time since I have written in my blog! Life in general has been non-stop the last few weeks. I'm going to try to keep it short, but sweet, since I'm packing for yet another business trip and need to catch a 6:30 AM flight to Minneapolis, MN tomorrow morning.

The basics: Week before last was a trip to the Old Navy Leadership Conference in Las Vegas, NV. We got a little Caesars Palace pool time before the conference started at 6 PM Oct 10. Old Navy went all out for the conference and even put on a New York style fashion show. It was a good time for all.

The week after Las Vegas was a two-day trip to Los Angeles, then I met with my friend Jill Thursday last night for dinner. It was great to catch up with her! We trained for several triathlons together 2005-06 and I miss her. She is training for the New York City Marathon so I met her at Kezar Stadium after the PacWest track workout. It was fun to see everyone. So many people said, "How are you? We hope you can run with us soon." I hope so too. To update you on my knee, my physical therapist Susan suggested that I move on to the elliptical trainer. I was SO excited! Yesterday morning I went to the gym and hoped on for 10 minutes. Susan said 10 minutes only then to wait for 24 hours to see how my knee feels. I'm a little disappointed that it feels a little achy today, but I'm told that it to be expected. Susan said to try the elliptical a few times before I see her on Thursday. One down... we'll see the next time goes. Patience.

Meg and her husband David were in town for a friend's wedding and their baby shower this week. It was great to see them. Meg is less than two months away from her due date on December 16. Yeah! The next time I see her, she and David will have a sweet little baby girl.
