Easy run + level 1 shred.

I ran with Lindsay again this morning. I ran 2 miles before I met up with her and then did about 3.8 with her and then the rest on my own. We saw Michelle and Michelle twice since we were doing essentially the same route as them in reverse. My girls are running a little more again. Maybe we'll be able to get the Saturday morning group going.

Another busy week at work, even though my boss is on vacation. What else is new?

glad you had someone to run with. I'm sitting here still in my running clothes and debating whether or not I want to shred.... I think I'm going with the "not" option today.

nice work getting a run and shred done. good luck with work.

And so begins another week.

Are you still in a heat wave?

I don't know how you can work so hard and also be a mom - that must be tough.

Yes, I second that! You do work hard, Carolyn, at all your jobs. You asked in your post on my blog how I keep track of the workout - I write it on my hand with a sharpie! Honestly, its the only way I CAN remember it all.

Nice running Carolyn. I'm glad you have other people to run with; it's got to make the heat easier to deal with. We are having a mini heat wave here in Salt Lake City, so I'm guessing you have the same hot temps where you are.

Do your daughters run sometimes? My daughter has ran with me 3-4 times this summer, usually in the cooler evening hours. I really enjoy having the company.

Isn't that how it always goes? Boss is on vacay and then there is more work!

From Carolyn in Colorado on Mon, Jul 19, 2010 at 17:38:08 from 198.241.174.15

Yes, we're in a heat wave. I guess I forgot to stick the weather info in my post this morning. It was 70 degrees at 6 am.

I might have mislead you, CookieLegs. My only daughter is 8 years old and she doesn't run with me. I've got teenage boys and the 13-year-old is expressing interest in running with me. By "my girls" I meant grown up women who are a good chunk younger than me, but are my friends.

Got to love those busy days!! Glad you got to run!
