It poured rain this morning. So hard did it pour it leaked under the siding and trickled in the top of one window via the siding. At least I noticed the water and mopped it up. I’ll definitely have to start calling roofers for estimates tomorrow.

My afternoon run of about 11km was rather slower by because of the wet trails and the puddle jumping. Running on the grass is slower, too. My knees and feet prefer running on grass.

I decided not to enter the Mississauga (Half-)Marathon. There’s too much to be done on the weekends: choir takes up half of Saturday already until the end of May. I figure that by the time I get driven there, register, run, get picked up at the other end, etc. that will be more than another half day gone. This will be another thing to put on the list of things I would like to do once I (semi-)retire in a few years hence.

Saturday I was busy restoring hubbo.com so I just ran on the treadmill. Since I had found the heart monitor I tried the “aerobic” “heart-rate controlled” 30 minute work out. The top speed was only 6.8 km/h; however the machine set the slope at 10% for most of it. I seemed to have sweat as much and burned as many calories according to the machine than the time I ran an average of 10 km/h over 30 minutes at a 2% slope.
