I ran towards Payson this morning and it was still a bright full moon which made it easy to see, but not real great for seeing shooting stars. My pace was real easy again today, just plodding along and enjoying the scenery and trying not to take it all to seriously. Sometimes being a step dad sucks and I'll just leave it at that! My average pace was 9:13 with my heart rate average at 145, still way to high for that pace, I am hoping this will change over the next few weeks, total time was 37:19... Tomorrow I may do a little longer run but I will have to see how I am feeling, ever since I ran up Loafer on Wednesday my legs have been tired so I will have to see how they are doing in the morning and then go from there. I was thinking maybe 8 to 10 miles just the thought of that scares me, which is kind of amazing considering I ran a marathon a month ago I guess I am still a little burnt from the race.

Well thats about it, I will see you tomorrow!

What is it with looking for shooting stars lately? I have seen a few over the past several weeks but haven't though much about it. Is the earth passing through a meteor shower area or something?

I use it as a way to get through the winter because the mornings are so dark and depressing. I have only seen 4 so far but the last week has been pretty cloudy...
