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
10.00

7:55 AP on the dreadmill in my basement during naptime.  Started at 7mph, worked into 7.6mph, and then drifted up to 7.8 in the last two miles, and then finished at a 10mph charge.  My power music CD ended at 9.5 miles so I had to hurry up and get it over with because I was quite bored with staring at the brick in my dark basement.  I didn't bother turning the lights on so it would stay cooler and I wouldn't waste electricity.  I probably won't do much tomorrow so I can rest up for Psycho Wyco Saturday.

Maybe you're right about the music.

That looks like a fun race, nice and dirty. I like how they have fallen tree obstacles.

LOVE how you beat your CD music!

GOOD LUCK at Psycho Wyco. That is a cool race name! :)

I love the one picture of the girl who is posing while she is running. I'm sure you'll enjoy the beautiful mug that you get when you sign up...

Good luck tomorrow! The race sounds awesome and your training has been too!
