Slow easy run.

7:34 am, 64-69° F, 60% humidity, winds calm.

I ran with Carly this morning. It seems that I can get myself out to run only if I have someone to run with these days. I'm glad that Carly was willing to go slow with me.

I'm tired. My two teenage sons had to be at the church at 4:30 this morning to go hike a couple of 14ers with the Young Men. My husband drove them to the church, but I had to get up and make sure they got up and out the door. And then I had a hard time going back to sleep.

I worked late last night too. Maybe that's another reason I'm tired. I should go try to take a nap before my boys get home from their hike.

Good job keeping the consistency in spite of life's sometimes burdensome ways.

Next time, maybe you can take a break from running and go hike with the kids :)

Nice job getting out and getting it done after a mid-night wake up call due to kids.

I hope work lets up soon and you get some rest! Before we know it the weather will cool down and we'll be able to run at 9AM on Saturdays - sleep and run, a novel concept for us :)

Hope the week at work has been good to you!

I wish I could come out & run with you.

Hope life slows down a little for you soon.

Running with friends does make it all better. IMO

I hope that nap happened! 4:30 is too early. When I have to get up before 5, something is irreparably damaged about the entire day.
