Ran to store before Steve woke up, as the sun was rising. 

Ended buying almost 12 lbs of stuff, so I was slower getting home, but still made it in time to watch the Chicago Marathon.  Not as exciting (or as much exercise) as when I got to cheer my son during.  Definitely not as exciting as when he and his wife announced their oldest daughter was on the way at the finish line.  I'll check for race reports before my folks come to spend the afternoon.

Took long way to store because it was getting dark and I didn't want to trip on the tree roots cutting through the park.  It definitely improved my mood.

Oops, I didn't get a run in today.  Very busy day.  A day without running is a day without sunshine.  Actually it was a day without sunshine.

I really noticed the difference yesterday, so I figured a 1/2 mile before I go to work is better than none for the day.  I am sooo cautious that I am just working on mass over distance and haven't even thought of speed. 

If all goes right I'll try to do more at lunch and before Deb and I go to see Liz's play maybe I can talk her into some distance with me??

Are days off from mileage bad because I don't go or do I not go because it is a bad day?
