You know, life isn't all angst and drama around here, and on a day like today, I can say that the word serene can best describe the day.

I have started a project called the "Tortoise Marathon" at the local YMCA and it's day two of my challenge.  I have seven weeks to complete the distances of the Ironman Traithalon--bike 112 miles, run 26.2 miles, and swim 2.4 miles.

It's day two of the contest and I'm a little over 16 miles completed with the biking and I've hit 4.5 miles running.  I should complete it well before the end of October.  I love having a goal, and it's incentivizing my exercise.  Having a goal gets me moving.

After running, I ran to the Wal-Mart and picked up some dishwashing liquid, checked a book out of the library, and had a sandwich at a local sandwich shop.  (Rather disappointing tuna salad.)

Now I get to read my book, listen to some African disco music, and enjoy a cup of tea.  Not so bad.
