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: |

| | Race: |
Titan 10k, Southside Scorcher (6.26 Miles) 00:40:51, Place overall: 1, Place in age division: 1 | | Up early and off to the yearly wicked hot and humid Titan 10k. Warmed up 1.5 miles with Nick and did a few strides. A quick look around at the starting line and I was fairly confident that no competition had showed up and I would be running mostly solo. I didn't take splits, just ran. It was 75 degrees at the start and wicked humid as always, but I still somehow felt I had a sub-40 in me today, so definitely disappointed. The pace just slowly bled throughout, nothing terrible, but a slow bleed that killed my overall time. I did win, though, by about 5 minutes, so I guess that was pretty cool. Later on while Vanessa was napping did a slow 8 mile shakeout on the home treddy. I know that ultra training and trying to keep touch with speed is a little absurd, but I am going to try nonetheless. I do think the weekend back to back long runs and lack of sleep keep my legs a little heavy, but as my body adapts I still think I can continue to improve.
