Easy run.

5:56 am, 55° F, 64% humidity, wind 4 S.

I actually managed to get out the door before 6 am (just barely) for the first time in nearly a month. It's cooler today than yesterday and with the earlier start, I actually had pleasant weather for running this morning.

While I was running, I realized that I'm double-booked tonight. I'm going to see if I can talk my oldest son into helping me out.

i'm triple booked tonight. seriously. making decisions is hard. i'm seeing the benefit of having kids... send one of them in your place.

nice early start for you this morning!

Nice and cool! Good luck with the busy night Carolyn.

I hate when I'm over booked...Glad to see you had some cooler temps even though it was before 6am.

Early start and cooler temps. Sounds great. It's okay to double, or even triple book, doctors do it all the time.

Best of luck with the double booking!

Nice run, I love the weather. I bet that felt nice!

Good run. I hope you evening worked out OK and that you were able to get everything done.

Jacob helped me out and took over one of my responsibilities.

From Kelli on Thu, Jun 24, 2010 at 14:45:52 from 71.219.99.30

Yeah Jacob!

Sounds like the perfect time to run, I can only imagine how nice out it was. Great job delegating some of the work load. You must have done something right in raising him because: 1) you trust him enough to help you out, 2) he's willing to give his Mom a hand.
