I slept relatively well last night. At least compared to being up all night at the hospital on Wednesday night and sleeping on a cot in the hospital on Thursday night. Heather got up every time the baby made a noise and I got up to change him, but it was relatively restful, I suppose. I had hoped to be timely enough to meet up with a few of the black sheep for a 6am run, but baby duties didn't allow it. I did get out around 6:25 and ran an 11 mile loop on the Shoreline trail south to Red Butte (up and down), then south above This is the Place, then dropped into the Park and returned via my normal Governors Grove/Research Park/Ft Douglas/Federal Heights route. I saw Zuzana and Alexander on the trail and chatted for a second. I was rusty from the start of the run, but managed to ease into it after a while. I ran a few pickups of 300m or so, just to test my leg turnover as it was feeling like I had not run in months. Overall, a nice re-entry into running after a couple of long days. Thought a lot about fatherhood, no surprise I'm sure.
