It was overcast and rainy last night and this morning but was not raining at lunch. 48 deg, little breeze. 10 people played but Travis tweaked is knee and left, so my team had a sub. We were getting stomped during warm up and then were down 0-2 at the start of game to 5. Then the other team started having more unforced errors and we played better, scoring the final 5 to win 5-2.

AM- It's been raining all morning so it was muddy. Rain was fairly light/intermittent when I ran. 9 miles, 8 deer, plus something small (quick glance of a small 4 legged creature- maybe a fox, coyote? Don't think it's a skunk).

Sunny, breezy, 50 deg. 13 people, my team had sub. Wind played a factor. I played ok- had a few terrible throws, 1 bad drop, but lots of good throws. In the game to 1, the other team scored first, then we traded points till 3-4. Then Travis threw a hard catch to me that I had to dive for but scored. 4-4. Final point, my team scored.

Late morning run, 50 deg and sunny. 10 miles on GE trail- I usually see animals only on sunrise runs and people later in the day, but I saw 2 deer and 6-8 turkey today but no runners. I felt good, starting just over 8 min pace and increasing from there. Last mile was 7:26. 78.5 minutes total.

50's and overcast, 5v5. I felt tired- my legs didn't have the regular kick today. My team had a speed advantage and did better in the warm up. I had some bad throws but also some good throws. Game to 5, my team was up 2-1. From that point on we imploded, dropped catches, stopped running to the disc, with lots of bad throws. We never scored again and lost 5-2. It was a massacre.

AM planned on 4-6 mile run but had a run in with a dog just before 1 mile. It wasn't resolved until a car came by to help out. I went home and called animal control, but found they aren't open on the weekend. I wasn't in the mood to run more after that.
