I woke up and really did not want to go running.  I almost bagged it but decided to drag myself out of bed and drive up just run with the club with out any extra mileage.  I got there a few minutes early so I got in a quick mile.  Trevor wanted to run the entire route this week which was good because instead of running the first 2.5 hard then backing off I was able to run a good consistent effort the entire run.  After a slow first mile, we maintained a little slower than 7:00/mile the rest of the way.  It was a good effort and felt really good.  I'm glad I convinced myself to go.

I am glad you came...who would have been "in charge" if you didn't come!

Andy, I can't believe you are still in a bit of a running funk. You are our stalwart, consistent runner man. If you ever falter, we may all quit running and just sit on on our couches and watch TV and eat junk food. OK, probably not, but it is nice to know you're always out there getting it done. Way to get your butt out of bed and get in a good run.

So happy you didn't stay in bed. We all have mornings like that when we HAVE TO convince ourselves to go and do it!
