Jodi’s marathon training continues. She cranked it up to 15 miles today. We got up later than we wanted – closer to 06:30 – but made it to the Sawyer Trail by 7. Jodi’s been doing roughly 10-minute miles, though she shaved a total of 3 minutes off her entire run. I scooted ahead of her a few times – once to get her water refilled – just to crank up my pulse. I wound up biking about 18 miles, which is probably the most biking I’ve done since my bike trip around Washington Island (in Wisconsin) on our honeymoon.
