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.

7:29 AP--5.07 in 38 minutes.  12 run, 2 walk, 12 run, 2 walk, 10 run.  It was warm outside and I could feel it a bit.  I am not used to being outside working out but thankfully that is changing!  No pain!  I ran into the Y and did 22 minutes elliptical after to make it one hour of cardio.

7:56 AP.  I met up with the downtown Y crowd--had a good time chattting with April, Barry, Randy, and Jesse.  I just ran with the group and didn't take my walk breaks today. I decided as long as I was having no pain it would be okay, because it is awfully nice to run in a group again!  And..no pain.  Lots of crosstraining tomorrow but no run again until Sunday!

one hour adaptive motion elliptical keeping heart rate in the 170s the whole time.  30 minutes recumbent bicycle with heart rate 140-160.  I am signed up for a 10K next week.  It is to fund a memorial for our Kansas soldiers who have sacrificed their lives.  The race director is our good friend Tony Clark and his wife Angel.  Tony is fundraising for his Badwater race to benefit the memorial as well, thus the 10k.  It is out and back on dirt.  Perfect--a nice and gentle ride for a post-injury fitness test, and a cause I am more than happy to donate to.
