Personal:

I was a single mom. Two times over. We all survived, despite the fact that I make atrocious decisions. Then, I met a man I didn't deserve. And he loves me so much. And I love him. We lived in sin and bought a house for two years then hired a judge and officially got married(to our great delight and also the delight of our mothers), then a month later he was diagnosed with cancer. Well we survived all that and he's 100% fine now. But, we're really out of shape and really busy with kids and jobs and running just isn't my priority and there's so many other layers to all of it, but I'm running anyway. This is my failure blog now. Just to log that one run a week if I snag it.
Somehow that matters and I want that run recorded.

Total Distance

8.00

I had to take yesterday off, too exhausted between shifts. Today Vanessa was sick so I did the home treddy, started at 6.7mph and bumped it up .1mph every 5 minutes until I got to 8 miles. Just a super easy progression, hoping to have my legs under me for a hill workout tomorrow.

I love this easy pace work out. Just bumping it up every little bit even if easy the whole time makes it seem to go by faster. Sorry you couldn't run yesterday but as you may have seen I took three days off last week. THREE. mon, tues and sat. Still I got in 42 miles LOL. runners are strange indeed. Keep up the good work. : D btw we have a driver to take us to the start. He is a Dr. He decided to stay where we are staying and drive us and his wife to the start. I believe we can take the shuttle at finish line to the train station. Got to look it all up again. Not as fresh in my brain as it was.

You two ladies are both going to kill it; these little days off here and there aren't going to put even the slightest dent in your fitness.
