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
19.92

Showed up early and ran 8 by myself at 8:05 AP.  Then I hooked in with the tribe and ran 11.92 at 8:47 AP.  It was getting pretty hot and humid today but we drank lots of water and the miles went fast with all the talking.  A good time as always!  Total miles 19.92 at 8:30 AP.  It was definitely a pretty stress-free 20.  I think I will just make this a Saturday routine.  Came home and downed a massive breakfast of eggs, sausage, pancakes, strawberries, and milk.  Burp.

Nice miles! It's so nice that you have a great group to make those miles speed by!

Wow, 20 is always impressive to me. Oh wait, you ran 19.92. Too bad you couldn't hack that last bit...

I know, I know, I need to buck up and learn to finish what I started. Silly garmin wearer, I did contemplate running around the parking lot a few times until it hit 20 but then decided that was just silly!

Nummy breakfast!!!

Sounds like a great run, company makes all of the difference in the world, the miles FLY by most of the time.

You had hot and humid, we had rain and freezing temps. Wacky weather, but I will take the cold to the heat any day.

You and your big breakfasts.

1992 is my favorite number.
