Well, I wanted to do my last 20 before RnR Vegas.  But with the high wind things were not looking so good, set out running towards SRL and the wind was so hard at times it almost stopped me in my tracks.  Got to around mile 4 and all I could think of was a Starbucks coffee, Subway sub, my recliner, blanket, college football, and a nap, now how can you run thinking of that.  Finished up the loop and desided to call it good  as the wind was blowing even harder.  On the way home I got my coffee, sub, I am now in my chair with a blanket, surfing the Internet, college football is on and I am getting tired now. (life is good)

It has been a good week of running and am looking forward to next weeks runs. Hope everyone has a great weekend.

I've had those type of thoughts running before and did the same thing. Sure makes you smile and appreciate days you are focused. Have a great weekend.

There is more to life than running...sometimes we get too focused. Nice job living life!
