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. Favorite Blogs: |

| | No school today, headed to the downtown Y so Vanessa could go to kidzone. 8 miles on the indoor track then 40 minutes core and plyo. Legs feel good. |

| | one hour fight club. then out for the run, I knew my legs were fatigued but short on time so threw in a little tempo. .62 warm up then 2 at 6:30, 6:45. These just felt hard. ugh. Then I just went to jog it out and on a whim did the last two 6:41, 6:49. I concentrated on just staying relaxed and cruising and these felt much, much easier and were in control. weird. I think a few days of recovery jogging are in order because my legs are pretty fatigued. |

| | one hour fight club and then my run. I wanted to go 12, but I was just too tired from working all night. I may do a second run after some sleep. |

| | downtown Y. dreadmill first: .5 warm up 8:34, 2.5 miles up 4% 7:30, then 5 down -2% 6:27, 6:22, 6:22, 6:22, 6:18. 4 mile cooldown easy. haven't been able to muster up this workout in a long time, so feels good to be able to do it. |
