Personal:

I am married with 3 lovely children 29, 21, 15 a dog named Koda and a cat named Blue. Love to run and be outside. I believe that if you think you can do it and you work hard enough any thing is possible. Life flashes by in the blink of an eye, enjoy it while it last and remember there is a lot more to life than running. I coach high school swim and love it!

Met at Melody's super early, she needed her long run today so Rebecca and myself decided to keep her company. Headed up the canyon 6 miles then turned and did a 5 mile tempo with a goal pace of 6:50. I don't seem to have the sheer speed back in my legs, I do fine with MP stuff but it will come I'm sure. Any way the tempo miles were 6:43, 6:55, 6:56, 7:01 stopped for a drink and had a hard time getting going again kind of wish I wouldn't have stopped, 6:48 for a total of 34:37/6:53. I think one of the things I struggle the most with right now is just caring enough to really want to go fast. I'm trying :/ Then back to Melody's house, wanted longer but had to get back.

still impressive Josse. It is Winter after all. I think our bodies know this. We are in hibernation mode and we don't even know (allow) it!!! Keep it up. Taper as you know is around the corner!!!

You are doing what's needed. Doing workouts is practicing caring. And your caring is getting stronger :D

Thanks Michelle I am trying. Coming back from this baby has been hard. I loved your little talk you out on your blog a couple weeks ago that said you have to practice caring. I have been thinking about that a lot.
