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: |

| | 7:47 AP. 83 degrees. 65%, dew point 70 degrees. Ran the first 10 easy and last 2 comfortably hard 6:35, 6:48, although that last mile the heat and south wind and little hill got to me and I was pretty uncomfortable. |

| | Worked a 12 hour night shift. Came home, got the kids, brought them to their first day of school. Slept for 2 hours. Ran slow with no watch. It was hot. Went and visited some home health clients and then picked all the kids up . Time to collapse. |

| | 8:17 AP. Took it easy at lunchtime from the downtown Y along the river. It was 95 degrees to start and who knows at the finish. I'm looking forward to 18 tomorrow at dark thirty in the cool, thick humidity. |

| | 7:57 AP. Great run today! Hooked up early for a leisurely start with Shane and Mark, met up with Winston, Scott, and Eric about 6 miles in, started picking it up slightly around mile 10, last 4 6:38, 6:39, 6:47, 6:37--felt surprisingly strong and comfortable for this. Hit the gatorade bottle twice and other then that ran through. Aft first it was 80 degrees and humid but then the rain started and cooled things off into the 70s for the rest of the run and the cold light rain really helped things feel better.
