Day 98-Rest in Edgerton

I started the day with every intention of making the run to Napoleon. I woke up to close the back door as rain was pouring through the screen. I downloaded the WeatherBug app, something I hadn't needed since Nebraska, and found that there were two bursts of rain expected for the day. The first one was just starting this morning.

Today was going to be a late start waiting out the second charge which was just starting up at 11 am. In fact, I probably wouldn't be able to finish before it started getting dark out. Jared and Emily very generously offered their home to me for another day and night which I gratefully accepted. Although it was only after four days of running, I was very tired from the three pretty long days and running in the downpour didn't sound fun at all.

We enjoyed a relaxing day with a driving tour of Edgerton, lunch of Tano's Pizza, and TV. Emily got me a t-shirt, water bottle, and chocolate bar from the second best OSU (Ohio State). I went to bed quite a bit earlier after a dinner of ribs. I was lucky to have had such hospitable hosts who offered me the chance to the recuperate.
