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.

Lunch with an old running friend, who told me, cut the sh%$ it's a shame yer not running and then signed me up without my permission for a trail marathon in late October, and told me I would be kidnapped, held down and forced into running clothes, and placed on the starting line.  Would not take no for an answer... said there was gonna be a comeback party.
