Oh The Joys of House Hunting

So today we went to check out a row house that we may potentially rent for the next (possibly) 2 years. There are six of us, so there's a lot of factors to consider, as far as how we are going to fit all of us into the house. This one was our first group trip, and it was quite good. The landlady is nice, and the house is in pretty good shape for a row house. The larger bedrooms are somewhat strangely arranged, but that's something to consider some other time. The current tenants are 4 seniors, and they are something of a mess, so the house is pretty nuts as it is right now. There are 3 floors plus a basement, so there's a lot going on. The basement is also quite interesting, with baren floors and exposed ceilings. All in all a productive trip, and at $2950 + ~$200 in utilities, it comes out to about $535 a month for each of us, which is pretty decent. There are 2 large bedrooms with baths, and 2 smaller bedrooms with no bath, though one leads out to a 2nd story patio. There is also a garage, which is nifty. A long narrow kitchen with plenty of cabinet space is nice, and there is a living room and dining room. So that was that.

My run was pretty good today, went down to the track again to do some quarter repeats. The plan was 6 x 400 at 75sec each, and see how it goes. I did 78, 78, 75, 77, 76, 75, and then did one more hard, hitting 71. Rest was equal time to each quarter. It was super windy with the not so passing of the storm, since it started drizzling a bit at the end. Overall it was a good workout, though I would like to be able to do more of them than just 6 (0r 7). My right shin twinged a few times on the track, and my left shin was hurting a bit when I got back to the dorms, so I iced both. The plan is to not do anything hard for 2 days, and just do some easy miles for Saturday and Sunday. I hope I can live up to it.

Time for some dinner. Ice cream anyone?
