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.

stuck on the home treddy, bored, so did some button pushing and half-heartedly did a speed workout I really wasn't in the mood for but grudgingly got through it.  20 minute warm up, 10 x 1 minute on/off 5:27 pace, stopped for a 5 minute call I had to take, hopped back on, jogged a quarter mile to get back in it, then 10 minutes 6:22 pace, cool down to 8.

East Y treadmill.  I meant to go easy since my back to back long runs start tomorrow, but the songs were good and my legs felt good so ended up doing 3 at 6:40 pace in the middle but they felt super easy.  abs afterward.

8:09 ap. Heartland 100 is only 13 weeks away. Long runs getting longer! I felt awesome this whole run and pace steadily dropped. The question is...how will tomorrow's long run feel?...

Got off work late after a terrible night, missed my meet-up with Nick and Kyle.  Ran all over riverside, caught a few miles with Amanda and a drink at her house, caught Kyle on the tail end of his run.  Legs actually felt okay, but was sleep deprivation and work-tired.  Glad this back to back long run weekend is done!!
