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.

over 100 degrees for this evening GoRun track workout.  3.5 mile warm up slow.  then 15 x 300 at 5k to 2 mile effort with 200 recoveries.  I didn't bother tracking my pace.  No cooldown, just drove home and drank a lot of water.

treadmill tempo.  My pace as pretty tempered by the heat last night at track so this afternoon legs were plenty fresh enough for a tempo.

1 mile warm up 8:34.  8 mile progressive tempo 6:40, 6:35, 6:31, 6:27, 6:22, 6:18. 6:15, 6:11, cooldown 8:34.

I wish these pace translated more realistically in the real world from the treadmill!

Worked all night and then had stuff to do in the morning and evening--four hour window to sleep, one hour to run, so stumble straight out of bed, a few sips of coffee, and straight up onto the home treddy in my underwear for 6 easy before jumping into the shower to make the next obligation.
