Day 19: Long Run... and a Cloud of Fail

Yep, confession again.  You know the point is, we keep getting back up when we blow it.

To understand the running fail, you would need to understand that the night before we got really crummy sleep.  It's bee a struggle for Addie for a while, which is actually part of why she started running before we were a "we".

We just don't function at our best without good sleep.  Emotions tend to be a little raw.  We might do a proper article on the science of sleeping at some point here.  Some people seem to do fine with little sleep.  I am not one of them.  Addie is a little better, but she tends to have a tougher time winding down at the end of the day.

The net of it is we did start out on an hour run that turned into about a 20 minute or so run, walk, and talk.

All is not lost.  You don't lose unless you quit.  We also had a bit of a long drive to see U2 play in Seattle on the 360 Tour!  Freakin' awesome!

We did a bit of moving around during the show.  I ran around up several levels and back down flights of stairs looking for a booth to get goods that didn't have a ton o' people.  We saw it with bathroom lines, and then further down the stadium a bathroom with no line.  I figured there could be the same for merch.  We also jumped around a lot during the show (which opened with Lenny Kravitz).  Sweet!

So the end result is we didn't exactly follow our plan, but we didn't totally blow it either.  And we got to see U2 live on maybe the biggest rock show production in history.

Tune in for week 4!!

Thanks for reading and take care of yourself!
