I didn't end up getting my long run in. I was tired and decided to nap. The update on my dad wasn't great, which suggested that the cancer is in his lymph nodes as it sounded like when I got the first update. I still got in a regular steady easy run. It was absolutely gorgeous out. We took the boys to Caterbury Village after for Fall Fest to walk around and get some donuts and stuff.

| Off.
It's been three full months between either a ride or run or both. I was tired when I got up and tired later in the day. Napped when the boys did and a bit later when Megan came home. It's been a minute since I have done that. Emotionally a little drained but doing okay. Figured it was good day to rest. Rained a good bit today, so we played in the basement a bit. Couldn't get the boys to ride their bikes. They basically wanted to look through bins of toys, name them, then throw them, not in a tantrummy way, just mild disinterest.

Didn't want to get out of bed and was quite irritable. Didn't get in any sort of run this morning, thinking I would do my midweek at lunch or in the afternoon, but I was just way too tired. LTU class was fine. Took a nap. Megan had something on campus so I took the boys after our nap. I wasn't super patient with them. Went back up stairs and slept some more. Felt better after I got up. Run felt great. Light on my feet and ran with good form and a steady pace without overdoing it. Just what I needed. Energy feels better now. I was quite fatigued today and yesterday. Kind of just hit me.

Pretty tired. Teaching went okay, but I didn't bring much energy. I didn't get up to run before class as we all slept in miraculously.
I believe I am headed to Maine the end of next week to say goodbye to my Dad. Mom is going to give him a bit more time, but as soon as they pull the antibiotics and the feeding device it's just a matter of dosing him with morphine I think.

6 x 200 on the track: 40, 43, 40, 40, 40, 41
Better than last week. Decided to add two more for good measure. A few late lap hits and a bit of weaving for the walking couple in lanes 1 and 2.
I'm headed to Maine tomorrow, so a bit sooner than I expected, but I am not surprised.

I was going to get in my long run, but just couldn't get myself to focus and I figured I didn't ride at all this week and didn't want to take a zero on that, and perhaps still get in my long run tomorrow in Maine. Warmed up 15' and decided I wanted to do a hard session, so I restarted and did:
2 x 20'
286 watts (160 BPM) and 291 watts (165 BPM).
I was decently please with the workout. I don't know if I have ever done the session, but it's a cyclist's staple.
Got to the airport and had a light dinner, which looked like crap but wasn't too bad. Slept a good bit on the plane. I got into Portland around 11:30 or so I think. Mom picked me up and I drove home. Stayed up talking to her until a late hour.
