No clever title for my post today.
Just a couple quick updates:
Gorby is in surgery as I write this. The U found a donor cat to supply blood if needed. The blood thing is a big deal -- found a bunch of info on it via my friend "The Google".
Most interesting info was found here.
I should know his status in a couple of hours by the latest.
Sigh...
In the mix of all of this, my training has really taken a back seat. Too tired; too exhausted (which are two different things if you think about it...); too drained.
But, unfortunately, that countdown timer to the right of my blog doesn't stand still just because I have a sick cat and Pigman is coming up soon.
I actually got my tush out of bed this morning and went for a run.
I had a great run. Felt really good, felt like I was running at a good pace, didn't take any walk breaks between my house and all around Lake Calhoun.
I walked through a small parkway for about a block on the way home and then ran the rest of the way. Covered 4.29 miles in less than 45 minutes, putting my pace at slightly less than 10:29/mile.
I'm happy with this because my running has been very ragged this year. Today felt really good.
It has also been tough keeping my appetite under control. The good news is that I'm not raiding the candy jar. I'm just not being as diligent about points right now.
What can I say?
I'll post when I have more news about Gorby.

I'm so glad to hear you're squeezing in some physical activity during this stressful time. Because now is whe you need it most. Good job not raiding the candy jar. Hang in there!
