Total Distance
4.50

It was a Chunga sort of day, since Chris left for work a little after 6a.  It was a very nice and easy day, could run like this forever, if it didn't take so long.  1hr total time.  Felt good and needed it to be slow for the 5k tomorrow.  That will be so much fun :)

Where has all the time gone?  I felt like I had all the time in the world to train when my countdown clock to the marathon had over 100 days, but now that it is reading in the low 90's I feel live I am into crunch time.
