1 mile at 8 pace and 1 percent then 7 mile medium tempo. First 3 miles at 7:03. Miles 4-6 at 6:58 and last mile at 6:45.  7 miles in 48:54.   No stops. Felt easy.  So much stress at home that my running drug is needed. To conquer my worries and fears about my mom.  We shaved her head yesterday as after third treatment on Tuesday her hair was coming out in coumps. I put on my nursing role and did al I could to help my mother feel good about this physical change that hopefully is temporary as . But worried as there is no end to her treatments until she soaps she has had enough as there is no cure for pancreatic cancer and all Treatnent they say is palliative only. Meaning to prolong life as long as possible. I hAte this. I hate this to the bone. But I have passed the denial angry sad stage and now I am in the fight stGe the hope stAge the miracle stage. The battle can be won!! And I won't give up on my mom!!

Saucony fives.  Loving the rolling ship over the waves while I run.  And while I sleep.  Sleeping the best every night.  Just too relaxing and heaven like.  No obligations. Eat run rest in the sun.  Shows. Whatever.  Just fun.  Ap 7:32.  Played a matching game the entire run.  Now that was fun to keep pace and focus on matching cards.  They were exercise symbols of varying colors and exercises.

11 miles to car rental.  Running back was easier and more fun. Probably because it was morning and I had rested all week on cruise.  Rushed on to plane. Last ones on.  Customs took longer than we thought.  Made it home safely.  Miss the Carribean already.

saucony fives. 7 miles rather quickly next to Jane.  Should have slowed down to adjust to higher elevation and colder temps.  7:30ish  last two miles were sub 7.
