muggy tuesday

I know it's not alliteration but man it's humid today. That's probably because it rained and thundered for a long time last night.

This morning I went on a run with my mom. Well sort of, I ran while she walked on the path. I have a story about that... So the path we were on is a well-trafficked path but it was a little crowded for a Tuesday morning. I was planning on doing a 5 min warm-up, 4 x 90-60-30s and a 5 min cool down. That did not go as planned because I noticed how fast I was running during my warm-up and I wanted to just run the first mile. I was minding my own business just sprinting along when there was another runner coming the other way and a woman walking in front of me. Normally I would've tried to maintain my distance but I needed to pass her at the same time the man coming the other way was passing her so I couldn't keep exactly 6 feet but I didn't think anything of it. After I passed her she started shouting "distance! distance!" at me. I didn't really want to respond because I wanted to quickly finish my mile and she said "hello!!" So I quickly yelled back, "sorry!" and continued to run. That wasn't good enough for her and she kept yelling things at me like how she was immune compromised or something and she was wearing a mask. I guess I was feeling a little fired up because I really wanted to tell her that she should've stayed home then. I didn't say that, I just kept running. That was my excited this morning.

After my run I brought bagels to Katherine and Fiona. Katherine's my roommate and Fiona's on my team, they're two of my best friends who I haven't seen in awhile. They're both at school right now for plebe summer and they're both at different stages in their quarantine. Katherine just started and Fi only has a week left. It still sounds pretty bad but I think they're doing okay! I'll probably go and see them again because it was nice to just sit there and chat and eat bagels.

I didn't end up sailing yesterday because of the storms but it's okay, I had a nice dinner with my parents. The grocery stores have been out of frozen rice, which we eat a lot of, so I'm trying to convert them to quinoa. I think my dad is on board, I'm not sure about my mom. I made it with chicken broth to add a little flavor. I enjoy it, it was good with our salmon.

I'm supposed to go sailing later, I think it should be okay weather, we'll see. I hope it's nice weather at least. I'm trying to keep up with my day's on the water. I was off to a really strong start and it's quickly decreasing. I'm only counting sailing, not just boating.

I have 3 brown bananas and I'm going to make banana bread! I'm really excited about it. I think I'll look for gluten free recipes after this.

Besides sailing this evening I don't really have any other plans for this week. I'll probably run tomorrow... or maybe I'll do something else. I really need to do yoga, I'm feeling a little sore. I'd like Madeline to come back to Annapolis so we can go on another long bike ride, it was fun!

Perhaps I'll make tacos tomorrow, I've been wanting them for awhile. It's also not that hard. I'll see if I can get my mom on board. I also want to go hiking and there's lots of places near me that I've never been to so I'll also look into that. Okay, I'm just rambling now... Hope everyone's having a good week!
