Zombies Run Season 2 Wrap

Zombies, Run! Season 3 gets released today.  I'm excited to have some new features and missions.  I pretty well clobbered Season 2, running every mission at minimum twice.  Above is my season 2 base, which I apparently get to keep building on in Season 3.  Here are my current stats at the end of season 2.  This combines all Zombies, Run! activities to date.

199 runs

864.93 mi dist

152:00:54 time

Recovery from my over-running injury has come along nicely.  I'm trying to take days off seriously to assure it doesn't happen again, but damn, I like to eat, so that makes it hard.  On that same front I've also decided to try and drop 10 or 15 pounds.  I assume that will make the running a bit nicer on my aging bones and body.  

I have a new mileage milestone in mind.  Google maps tells me that walking from Hollywood to Kansas City is a 1,583 mile trip.  When I get that number down I'll have a little party in my heart.  Hey, I'm over half way there!  Readers in Hays, Ks, I'll have that heart party at 1,325 miles.   With no injuries I may be able to knock that number out by the end of the year.

Angela and I attended a wedding reception in Palm springs the weekend before last.  On our way home I decided we should take slight detour through a town I've always wanted to see,  Idylldwild, CA.  This tiny hamlet is located in the San Jacinto Mountains, about 2 hours away from our home in Hollywood.  Angela and I absolutely fell in love with this place.  The smell of burning firewood, the roving gangs of weekend warrior bikers.  We enjoyed  a calzone in a small market that was the best I've ever had.   

Our first discovery in town was this happy little deer.  There were several of these fella's sprinkled about.  

Isn't he just a darling?

Above is the town monument.  Basically take every mainly mountain animal you can think of and carve them out of one tree.  Some how I guess you have to offset all the frilly little deer flutting about town.  

And if the monument won't do it perhaps painting a car on it will.  

This is a nice store if you need an expensive hat.

Look, a tiny first run theater!

In case you were wondering, we have been looking at property in Idyllwild.  We found a reasonable mobile home in a nice community.  The only problem is that it's a 55+ park.  Again in life we find ourselves in need of some fake IDs.  

March of Miles

It's nice to have my legs back to working again. I ran 63.5 miles in March with plenty of days off. Starting to feel pretty good again, excited to feel more in shape. It seems like everyone in my family who is not pregnant is running occasionally now, way to go clan! Back to work for me.
