I Don't Have Time For This . . .

It was Monday morning. That pretty much sums it up.

Took a different route with my new running partner. Didn't care for it - too much Main St. I'll have to come up with a better one for Thursday. Maybe we can stretch it a little longer.

So happy to have my Wednesday run back. It wasn't quite the glorious, energizing event I've come to expect, but it was the longest I've run in two weeks so I guess I should cut myself a little slack. More sleep, less stress and better food should help. I can dream.

A better route today. Nice and easy.

Ha! I did it! I actually met my weekly mileage goal for the first time in several weeks. I'm a little tight and my foot is complaining, but other than that I held up okay. Having a running partner two days a week is really going to help my consistency. I'm feeling optimistic that this can happen again - even in the middle of the semester!

I just grabbed the paper log I was using before I joined the blog and I added my miles for the first part of the year. I'd forgotten how little I ran this winter and how far I've come since then. I didn't put comments on anything so there's no explanation for the random little 1 mile runs when I started running with my girls a few times a week in April and May. And there are a few 6 milers that come out of no where when my husband drug me out the door to do his favorite run with him. I love that I can do that run with him now and not die in the process. My only fear is that my running always drops off precipitously in the winter - I really want to keep it going this year!
