took in the Southern Maryland Blue Crabs second ever game at their home park, Regency Furniture Stadium...this is an independent league team that features former major and minor league ballplayers...Brooks Robinson has a stake in the team...
anyway, we were there in honor of a friend's birthday bash...and although it was a kiddie party in name...you can't watch a ballgame without a brew...and I had a few...the game wore on thru extra innings and I was nodding off...the guest of honor left after nine, and we made an exit soon after...
the beer and late hours made today's long run something of a struggle...
it was an early morning sunny day with a nice breeze blowing...ran the scenic road out to Merkle HQ and back for a loop...took lots of side trails...startled a deer, spied a bunny (right next to me off the trail)...a dog walker...and a gang of cub scouts riding bikes...
I had a dehydrated and dry feelingmost of the way...sluggish and hungover to start...improved some but not much as the run progressed...felt OK not great by the end...
but I had my best mileage week since the fall...25 miles and change...I'll reach for 12 miles next weekend and then taper for the two weeks leading up to Chestertown...
