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: |

| | 8:15 AP. First run in full winter gear--tights, compression shirt, gloves, hat, the whole deal. Felt nice. Time to dial back the pace on all my runs for a while until I feel good and start racing well again. Maybe go fast once a week. | |

| | Rolled another doughnut. Even after sleeping only 3 hours and getting started on all the stuff I had to do today, I barely got it done in time to go back to work for 12 hours. Running didn't happen. I guess I could've only slept 2 hours. | |

| | Did my once weekly speed to knock the cobwebs off today. I was stuck on the treadmill at the Y since I had all the kiddos but that's cool, it made me hit my paces and keep it sub-6. 3 mile warm up 8:27 pace. 1.5 miles 5:56 pace. .5 jog recovery. 1 mile 5:56. .25 jog recovery. .5 mile 5:56. .25 jog recovery, .25 mile 5:52 pace. .75 recovery on the mill to cool down. Then I ran another mile on the indoor track and followed it with 4x50 meter all out sprints with full recovery. rowed 2k in 10:15--I wish I had known about this machine when I had my stress fractures. It might make my arms look good if I keep doing it and it definitely got my heart rate up. | |

| | 7 on the treadmill at the end of my shift at 8:27 pace. Switched out with my relief and went and ran 7.14 outside at 8:02 AP. Needed it, bad call last night. | |
