Well, I'm back home in New Buffalo for the month. I'm currently jobless (until my internship starts in June, check out my desperate FB post lmao) and not really excited to be here, but ALAS! New Buffalo is completely under construction right now. Every single one of my running routes is being torn part by bulldozers as we speak, but at least the roads are being fixed. Those roads were ass lol.

As for the run, I ran down 7.27 miles down the Farakhan route (in case some of you did not know, the leader of the Nation of Islam lives in New Buffalo for some reason). The thing about Louis Farakhan is that he has a private track outside of his house. If it wasn't for his guard dogs constantly growling at me from behind the gates, maybe I'd challenge him to a mile, but IDK Man!

Anyways, the run felt good even though it was really sunny and hot outside. This was the first run in a while that actually felt pretty good. I'm planning on doing a long run early in the morning (I see you Garmin) tomorrow to get ready for this marathon. Still not sure how that's gonna be, but gotta be as prepared as possible!
