I liked this quote:

"I am thankful that there are different seasons in life and training. I have learned to embrace each season realizing how important it is to allow the body, mind and spirit to fully cycle through each..."  -Ryan Hall

Running has definitely gone on the backburner right now!  Either I'm burned out from school and studying or as a way of preservation, my body is not giving any energy reserves for running while we get the process of mortgage and moving behind us and while I take the NCLEX next week and transition to being a nurse at work (and of course there's still full-time hours to fulfill at work, that's about all the exercise I'm getting right now!).  Either way, I may not have much to offer on the blog in the next while!  Hope you're all doing well.

  • 5 miles of East High route (with 1.5 miles barefoot)

I figured the day would come this week that I would want to run, but I didn't think it would take THIS long!  7 days later!  Woke up with sore muscles (from inactivity!) and I was restless and stir crazy (started setting in yesterday).  It was so nice to get out there!

Didn't have my Garmin.  I left about 6:15am and probably did 10 min avg pace.
