AM:(8 miles, 1:11:18 (37:20/33:57). I had to suffer through a very hot run because I slept in a little and didn't get out until almost 8:30 ... it was almost 92F and sunny. I had another tough night ... at 2:53AM I finally had to break down and take an ambien, I have so much work to do this weekend and I just couldn't afford another brain dead day like yesterday. I have two big projects that I am working on, and my class starts in a week ... I really need to get 4 lectures and the first homework written (along with the solutions which will be hard) before the first day of class. This class is so hard, I know that I can finish the homework/exams in less time than it will take them, but I am pretty sure that many times it will still be hours of work for me too ... I did not actually ace this class myself! One of my colleagues was bemoaning her experience as a student in this class and how she worked for 3 days on an exam only to get a 50% ...ahhhh, the good ole days. My professor would give us open problems that had not been solved just to see how far we could get. I don't plan on being that mean ;-). PM:(4 miles). I really want to go to my favorite spot to run, but I can't because we are having dinner with one of the Deans from my college and his wife. As it is I won't be able to wait until the sun goes down, so it will be a little hot ... again. Have a wonderful weekend bloggers ... enjoy the dog-days of summer! Don't forget the World Track and Field Championships start today. Today and tomorrow NBC will be showing recaps of the first two days. Then there will be some live and recap coverage on Versus the rest of the week. I am thankful for DVR -- I have already set my TV to record about 15-18 hours of coverage (though some of it might be reruns, I am not sure). Jenny Barringer made the finals in the steeple, but it was down to the wire and she had to make a final mad sprint down the backstretch to make the top 5.
