And he's off...to work
I don't usually get up with Jeff in the morning before he goes to work because it's always too early, but this morning I made an exception because I didn't want to miss this. A few months ago Jeff bought a commuter bike to ride to work and he has been riding up and down all those hills and five miles each way. But, yesterday I ended up picking him up from work, so he left his bike there. He decided that in order for him to get to work this morning, he would run the five miles. But, how was he going to get his laptop and clothes to work? Maybe he could load up a bike trailer and pull it like a handcart or wrapped around his waist. I suggested he take the jogger stroller since he and Sienna usually go for long runs on the mornings I get home from work and he always says he feels like he could "run forever with the jogger." At 6:30am he loaded up the jogger and was ready to make the journey. He gave himself an hour and a half and was off...He made it downtown in 46 minutes! He's not quite sure how he ran so fast, maybe adrenaline or worried about not making it in time or having to take a cab or whatever, but I think we both were surprised he made it so quickly. The only problem was he forgot some essential pieces of his wardrobe (let's just say he remembered his shirt, suit, and tie)!
