Happy birthday, JK Rowling and Harry Potter.

Getting Kat's cold? I hope not. Lifted weights for 25 minutes, finished with several sets of Burpees. Ugh. Can't do more than 10 Burpees in a row without breaking form in a spectacularly ugly manner.

A day of chocolate, reading, watching the London Olympics, and taking care of Kat, who arrived back from her trip to Minneapolis with a nasty cold.

Pretended to lift weights for about 5 minutes. Ended up hacking down blackberry canes on the back slope for about an hour, instead.

Good choice.

On Saturday, July 28, 2012, the sole member of Team DesCamp--that would be me--ran the Cat Adoption Team's Catnip 5K.

I won my age/gender group (F/50-59). Given that my only goal was to get across the finish line without 1) crying and 2) throwing up, I'm ecstatic about my results. 

Time: 28.40. Course: mostly flat, a few very slight hills. Conditions: warm, slight breeze, slightly humid, early evening. Field: some serious runners, some walkers, lots of people just out to have fun.

Also: Deona, this blog is your fault.
