Well, I am back.

Good news: both of my calves are 100% healthy!!
Bad news: I cried with tears coming down my face for a good 10 minutes at the beginning of my drive home yesterday. For someone who is always being critical of other people being soft, I am really the softest of them all.

Took me a whole 12 hours from the time I left the hotel yesterday to when I arrived home. Normally, this drive is just like 10.5 hours, but I took a toll-less route and also had to drive through country roads to find my landlord guy to sign my lease. I am officially going to be living in a town home with a couple of other random guys from Epic. The address is 3753 Maple Grove Dr., Madison, WI, if you care. Funny thing is that rent is going to be cheaper than what the Burner was lol. I can't move out there until June 1st so I am probably just going to be dicking around here mostly in Minny until then. Idk, I got an unexpected graduation gift so maybe I'll go travel somewhere.

One thing that will be happening though is me getting Lasik eye surgery. I have my initial appointment on Thursday and I can't wear my contacts for the three days before it. It was raining today so I didn't want to wear my glasses and thus the whole run was literally a blur.

My legs felt heavy but fresh, which is to be expected after not running for 11 days. I haven't swum at all in a long time and since I can't wear contacts until Thursday I will have to wait until then to get back in the pool. I fear my swimming fitness is going to take some work to get back :(
