Easy run.

6:15 am, 47-50° F, 47% humidity, wind 3 ENE, sunny.

I started really slowly today and tried to keep it slow and easy, though I couldn't help but speed up a wee bit on the nice long gradual downhill in mile 3. At about mile 2.5, I ran through several big sprinklers that were obscuring my path.

It's a busy morning this morning trying to get my two middle children off to stake youth conference. They should leave in about one minute. Fortunately, I don't have to drive them.

Hope they are off safe and sound and you get some peace and quiet :)

Nice run this morning, can't blame you for hitting the downhill faster. Sometimes it is harder to hold back!

Nice one today. Good week, and it's not even tomorrow yet!

RAD, they're just at our stake center and they come home tonight and then go back for a few hours tomorrow morning.

Thanks, JD. I'm trying to get my running done.

I hope your children enjoy the state youth conference! Sounds exciting.

Great week!

I am amazed at how dedicated you are to run, it seems nearly every day, while being a working mother. Wow!

From Carolyn in Colorado on Sat, Jun 04, 2011 at 13:00:06 from 76.25.72.82

Well, bye-wing. The training plan I'm doing right now has four weeks in a row of running 6 days/week. I'm half-way through that 4 weeks right now. Just two more to go. And then after that, it drops down to 5 days/week for the rest of the plan and gives me a rest the day before the long run as the long runs get longer.
