143. It's just a pound, but it's a pound in the right direction.

I haven't done a single thing remotely athletic since Sunday's Muddy Buddy, though. I gave myself permission to take September off/easy after a long hard year of PBP training. It feels incredibly decadent to do nearly nothing, but I think it's a good mental break, and my left knee sure needs the rest. I have a picnic -oriented bike ride (think: 2 five year olds along for the ride, and you'll get an idea of the pace ) planned for tomorrow and a trail walk on Sunday.
