Today’s the perfect day to “high-five” everyone you see to celebrate National High-Five Day! There’s no better feeling than a high-five after a big accomplishment. Out of all the triumphant gestures, such as the fist bump, fist pump, end zone dance, and chest bump – the high five stands in a class all its own.<\/p>\n\n\n

The CK Daily – Virtual Race Update<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Happy Thursday!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spring is def in full effect around here! Between the posts about planting and pollen, you can tell what is on everyone’s mind. As with many places, Georgia tends to skip right over Spring usually and go straight to Summer which means we have the extreme pollen along with the blazing heat all at the same time. This year has been a bit different. We have actually had a Spring with cooler temps at night and decently warm temps during the day. This weekend it starts heating up a bit. We are supposed to get into the low to mid-80s. For me, this has been the perfect weather to get out and run and do stuff outside. So far, the pollen hasn’t affected me too much. Probably from being in a new neighborhood where the trees and flowers are still pretty young. Hopefully, that lasts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Figured I would give an update on where my team and I are at with our virtual race through Iceland. With injuries, traveling, and just life in general, I have teamed up with two other guys from my running group who are doing the race to help all of us push through it. We are just over 55% through the 828 miles. We are sitting at 456 miles completed. Getting over that 50% mark was a huge morale booster. I personally am sitting at 208 miles completed. It is going a bit slower than I had hoped since I had to take 3 weeks off (out of the 12 so far) because of my knee. With all of that, I am pretty proud of those numbers. The knee is about 95% back to normal, so I am hoping to start cranking out some higher numbers again soon. I am debating on doing something I said I would never do. I am toying with the idea of doing a marathon in September. Still not sold on the idea yet. I have done many half-marathons but never really had the desire to do a full. We will see how things continue to develop with the knee and virtual race over the next month or so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I hope everyone has a great rest of the week and an awesome weekend. Make the best of it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
