10 pm  This is getting ridiculous.  It's been a busy little while with the new baby, election, car wreck, work crunch, etc.  That's a pretty good list of excuses, right?

I haven't been loving running all summer.  I've been doing it, but going through the motions.  I find when I have a stretch like this that even if it's just going through the motions, it's still worthwhile.  I'm not stretching for a pr, or running a goal race, but the physiologic and psychological benefits of 4-5 runs per week are imperative. 

So even though my daughter's tennis banquet took 4 hours of  valuable, after work hours, when I got home at 9:45, I was on the road by 10.  

Today the foggy haze has lifted.   My eyes are bright and my mind is clear.  Bring it on.

tm biggest loser progression run.  It's nice the episodes are only one hour this year; it makes these runs a lot more manageable.

Baby didn't sleep very well last night.  I'm pretty tired.  Like stupid, staring off into space tired.
