Took it easy today. Yesterday a neighbor brought over one of my favorite African dishes, rice with leaf sauce. The leaf sauce is cooked with palm oil so as you might imagine it's rather heavy on the stomach. So, I ran 'heavy' today. The sauce sure was good, though! Also got a bit of a surprise...my husband takes the kids to school in the morning, and I go and run. Well, 30 minutes later he returned with the 2 kids! They start school an hour and a half later on Wednesday's. Ugh. New schedule. Change. I had to take the girls to school after I ran. On the way I asked my middle schooler (her 3rd day of middle school ever...6th grade) so what time does your schedule say you start? OH NO!, she replied. I started at 8am! (an hour and 10 minutes earlier). There are guards outside the school gates and where you enter into elementary school is different than middle school and my husband didn't think to ask the middle school guard what time school started over there. So, I had to explain to the school what happened so that my middle schooler could enter school an hour and 20 minutes late. They showed us grace and my middle schooler was so relieved. We're recovering....oh...yes...I did run this morning.... It did rain AGAIN while running this morning, but at least this morning it was a slow drizzle. these were the slow, palm oil saucy, splits: 11:08, 10:58, 11:19, 10:47, 10:44 AP: 11:00
