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

Today was supposed to be recovery circles around the playground with Vanessa, but when we got to the playground it was full of a bunch of men from a landscaping company doing their thing and no other children. I didnt feel comfortable with it so left and we went to the East Y. Being stuck on the treddy changed things--I didn't have music and could not fathom the boredoms so I did a mini-workout so I could press buttons and vary it up. I tried to keep it light and not go overboard, although I honestly do not feel yesterday's 20 or Saturday's race in my legs.

3 x (.5 ez, .5 up 4% 7:30 pace, 1 down -2% 6:18 pace)

jogged a few minutes

5 x 1 minute on/off 5:56 pace

cooldown a few minutes to make 8 miles

20 minutes lower body weights after and then I was suck of the gym and ready for lunch

Weight: 0.00

I love your workouts. Just what comes to mind but not so intense that you die. Just enough to keep you strong without overdoing it. : D KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK.
