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.

Slow 10.....how slow would that be? Just wondering if we r on same page about slow. Sorry about vanessa. She is tough like her mommy.

Vanessa is doing great, she is a real trooper!

Julie--slow was 8:45 pace today. I take my recovery pace seriously!

Poor thing! If she's anything like my girls, maybe she thinks the cast is cool..?

Great workout yesterday, exhausted just reading about it.
