Easy 6 miles.  43:11.  Very busy and very tired after a long week, mainly mentally but also physically, just seems like there are never enough hours in the day.  Sometimes I wonder if I should bother with this hobby especially since so many other things are pulling at me to get done now.  I'm in a bad morning mood right now so that doesn't help also.  

Hopefully since I slept in a bit this morning my long run today will go better.  With the assistance of Starbucks coffee..

Starbucks has a way of motivating me too! Sorry you had a rough day. I know for me, running helps as a stress remover but definitely isn't my top priority. I guess we all have to find where/if it fits in for us. Good luck with everything my friend!

You definitely should keep bothering with it Steve. Just take what life gives you and try to grab a little bit more.
