The high came this morning when I jogged 6.41 miles on the elliptical, bringing me to a grand total of 100 MILES!!! I was so excited I took a picture:
My excitement, however, was tempered when I got home. Phil Pollard, someone I know, someone who just turned 44 yesterday, almost died this morning. I didn't know him well, but from what I knew of him, he was an all around nice guy. He had been in a band with some of my friends, was a volunteer at WRIR. I wished him happy birthday on Facebook yesterday before my radio show. Later on that morning he acknowledged my birthday wishes with a "like." And within a few hours he had suffered cardiac arrest and was in ICU. And now today he is almost gone. But even though he didn't know me that well, I take comfort in the fact that he knew that I wished him happy birthday yesterday.
