11:00 AM start, 70F but breezy. This was a really crappy week. My older son has some health problems and I have tons of problems at work and to top all that I have a cold with a bit of heartburn too. So you can imagine that I was not in the mood for anything, including running, this morning. I am proud of myself for eventually going out of the door and running. I took it easy and started slower than usual and felt great. In fact after the 2nd mile I felt so great about myself that I decided to extend my usual 4.75 to 6.40 miles by running an extra loop around East campus. Looking at my splits, I did the 2nd half of the run slightly faster than the first one and over all I averaged 7:48 which is not bad at all. Things got to get better from this point on, I know it.

One thing I have to do is sleep more but there are so many things to do after we put the kids to bed. Both me and my wife are working full time and have demanding jobs and we give full time to our kids too so 24 hours a day are not enough. Can I get an hour extension here and there? |
