We Bosses have been walking up a storm lately, all to get ourselves ready for the 56km walk around Lake Cowichan. I am not all together sure why we wanted to subject our bodies to this particular form of insanity but we had fun preparing (long-walks around the city) and I dare say we had fun while doing it. Well, maybe until the 50km mark at which point my feet hurt, we were walking along the highway and I was a tad bit grumpy. We were thankful for downhills which provided the opportunity to run and the other walkers in our midst that provided me with the added motivation of beating someone to the finish line. It worked. We planned on taking, at the fastest, ten hours to complete the course, twelve hours maximum. We finished in eight hours and fifty-three minutes. Our bodies said thanks for the workout and allowed us to get out of bed this morning on two legs, instead of on all fours.
In other news, my dad fell on a cow, breaking his wrist while on the same day I got hit by a car while riding my bike home from work. I am fine, my dad had surgery and you can read more about it on my other blog
"Spoiled for Normal".
This week it is back to thesis writing for me, classes and homework for Darren, and work for both of us sprinkled in between. Never a dull moment being a Boss.
