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

6.00

8:18 AP. Back home and exhausted. Ran 4.75 pushing Vanessa in the stroller, then ran the last 1.25 at what felt like it might be marathon pace--6:52 pace for this part. Slow for the rest of my run. I am thinking Saturday I will do a 20 miler with 10 easy and 10 marathon pace tempo--no peaking at the watch, to see what pace I end up running when it is all said and done. This will help me decide on a time goal for the Wichita marathon in October, which I intend to run as well as Houston in January.

Good luck not peeking at the watch. You have far more willpower than me if you can pull that off.

I'm bad at not peeking...

Get some rest--you've had a lot of stress lately.

Ditto on Tracy's comment, take care. Last thing you want is an injury.
