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.

I sort of pieced this run together.  Started a load of laundry, ran 25 minutes, cycled laundry, ran 35 minutes, cycled laundry, drove to Nancy's and ran 6 miles with or so miles with her and her kids in a stroller.  50 degrees outside today!!

I weighed today.  Yikes!  Went to the downtown Y with Mom, 6 miles at 6:40 pace then 20 minutes of core.  I am ready to get back on the eating-right train....

I got on the home treddy and made it happen. I did not want to, tired, no motivation, but once I got going I felt much better.  I turned into a little mini workout to make the time pass.  15 minute warm up slow, then 5x 1 min on/0ff at 6:00 pace, 5 minutes at 6:18 pace, 3 minute jog, 5 x 1on/off again, cooldown to 6.  Now I'm going to a party, without a kid, a rare thing in my world.  I rarely have adult time--will be nice!
