Hot Child in the City

Ok, I can't complain. I'm actually not really complaining. We've been so lucky with weather here in NYC this summer. Today was the first run where I felt like, yea, summer's here. It was 84. But the humidity was only in the 60s. While it was hot, it wasn't sauna. I went out and did a bit over 7 and picked up my race number for Sat.
My calf. I had it poked on Mon. My awesome and someone conservative running wise therapist suggested I take a few days off. So my runs the last week looked something like this:
Sat 15.5, Sun 4, Mon and Tues off. To be, 2 days is as close to a few I'm going to get. It actually felt totally fine. I'm going to see her again next week just incase.
The rest of my week so far:
Yesterday 10 with some pick ups, today the 7 already mentioned.
Tomorrow I'll do an easy 4 before the 4 mile race on Sat. I'll run down there (3 miles) to warm up and go long on Sun.
When I got back from my run, there was a little white envelope waiting for me. It was my love, my Garmin. It has returned to me. The great thing is, when I called about getting it fixed, the woman I spoke to said she wouldn't charge me since it was close to my warranty. Saved me $80!
In all honesty, the thing I missed the most about it was the GPS. I really like walking out the door knowing I have to run X miles and not having to think about where I'm gonna go. I just go til it tells me I'm done.
