AM: Same run as yesterday. SH commute run into work. Last night was another rough one. Slept in an extra two hours to get to the magic 6hr survival number. The good news about my job are that my hours can afford to be moved around. However, I will say the interrupted sleep makes critical thought difficult. Sandra really takes the majority of the interruptions so I don't have room to complain... Avg. 8:42 I forgot to mention the strangest part of this morning. Less than a block from my house was a deer standing in the middle of the street. It didn't run away when I approached it. I couldn't tell if it had been hit by a car but it was obviously stressed about being in a neighborhood. Even as I ran by it, it more or less just watched me. Then a truck turned the corner and it just walked into a yard and then behind the house, strange...
PM: Slow day. I have the longest case of writers block ever. I've been able to write the grant and some abstracts this year but when it comes to writing manuscripts I sit there and find everything else to do but write. Kind of like now. After family time and dinner I came back into lab (still there now) but first I went for a run. Memory Grove overlook plus. I hit the Firehouse Mile hard 4:54 HR 182. I still get very excited whenever I see sub-5 minute miles. I haven't done many of them in my life. Even downhill they are exciting. Another 1/2 hr of work and then hopefully some sleep. I have a long day tomorrow... Avg. 7:57 HR 146
