Tuesdays with Nate: Gimme a break!

I know I have slacked off a little on the Tuesdays with Nate column, but I'm on my break! I need to relax with my wife. So, you can stop sending the hate mail and no more car bombs, please. Tuesdays with Nate will return shortly.

So, even though I haven't been blogging like I should, Julie and I have had extra time to exercise together. Well, extra time to do everything, like sleep. I don't think we've gotten out of bed before 10 in the past week! It has been awesome! Today, we decided to make the most out of our extra time and go for a little longer run than normal. We got on GoogleMaps and drew out a course for ourselves. About a mile of the run, maybe a little more, was supposed to be along a canal on the far west side of our neighborhood. When we got there we realized that it was all private property of the Arizona Canal Project and we couldn't run on it. So, we turned around and decided to take a short cut. The map we had drawn was supposed to be about 4 miles. So we figured we could take another road and it would just be a little shorter. Well, apparently we had both drawn out the map differently in our heads. When we got home and went back to GoogleMaps to map our route, we discovered we had actually run 5.3 miles. We were both pretty surprised but very happy with ourselves!

Anyway, stay awesome and I'm really looking forward to this walk to Zion thing! I think it will be super awesome! Love you guys!
