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.

16 with Marcus.  chilly, still and perfect.  started out 7:40ish pace, cruised mostly at 7:30 pace, a few 7:20's at the end.  I felt pretty good, a little tired, it was after a long night at work, but pretty good.

20 mortuary loops, then in for 12 more miles on the mill. 1 warmup 8:00 pace, 3 uphill 4% 7:30 pace, 7 down -1% 6:40 pace, 8:34 cooldown.  dont' think the mill was calibrated right at post 11 because it all felt way too easy
