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.

ez on the home treddy.  I would love to be more noble but really I only ran out of obligation because I did eat a lot today, one of those things that happens when you are up for over 24 hours.  Work all night, school cancelled, one of those deals.

6:00 death workout today.  It didn't go great, but it went okay.  I am so tired, still feeling the effects of chronic sleep deprivation, but legs felt decent enough.  I would like it to have gone better, but I'm not gonna force a workout.  up to 4.5 miles total of 6:00 pace today.  So, 2 mile warm up ez, 2.1 miles 6:00 pace, .5 jog, 1 milw 6:00, .4 jog, 1 mile 6:00, .25 jog, .4 miles at 6:00 pace, cooldown.  It's a wee little bit improvement.

No run today....I'm gonna have to chalk this up to an "off" week.  I do plan on getting 15 or 16 on the treddy tomorrow.  I only got 3 hours of sleep after work then got up to attend a funeral.  I had to go pick up my daughter's meds after and she will be out of school soon and will need me, not to mention I am desperate for laundry and a little housecleaning, and am pretty work-distressed and life-distressed today.  My body and mind are tired. I plan to put this week behind me and start anew for the new one.  It's a great thing that I get to wake up and start new again day after day after day.  Our gift of life is precious.  Rest in peace Shannon.

short on time.  home treddy.  5 minute warm up.  15 x 1 min on/off.  5 minute cooldown.  This week was definitely just kinduva loss.  life happens!
