Life is to be enjoyed, not just endured

am:  6 easy miles with Erica and Adrianne.  I like running with the ladies but it is almost too easy and light and I need to come up with some alternatives.

pm:  4 miles on the hotel treadmill with an avg pace of 9 min/mile while I watched the end of the Villanova/UConn game.   I love this time of year!  Knees felt tired and the effort was harder than I would have liked.   We will see what tomorrow brings.

Very rough travel week.  Syracuse, Home for 3 hours for a meeting, OKC and then rushed back home for more meetings.   I had two people tell me I sound tired on the phone....not a good sign, especially since I do not talk to one of them very often.  

Went  to yoga tonight at the Y with my 11 year old.  It was just what I needed.  Felt great and energized when I left.  Too bad they only have evening yoga classes on T/TH.

1 mile to meet the ladies

4x1 mile repeats at an easy pace with a good uphill portion

1 mile home

It is extremely windy today but got it done.   The avg pace ended up being 9:14 (always slow on MWF if the other show up) but this was faster than I expected.  

am:  8 miles while I had sometime before volleyball.  I had to run in an industrial area that was probably not the best place to run, but got it done.    It had a lot of rolling hills which always makes me feel like it counts more than a flat run.   The last mile was looping on a street doing fartleks and the legs were tired

avg pace: 8:15

pm:  5 "easy" miles with Saskia but the ended up being faster than I wanted

avg pace: 9:01
