| I feel like I am going backwards... Legs are tired before I even get started. It feels like I have run a marathon before I even start. Not sure what has happened. Its been a slow downward spiral over that last couple of years. I refuse to believe that its an age thing. To lose so much so fast doesnt make any sense. My average pace was super slow at 10:25 with a total time of 43:05. Frustrating.
See you tomorrow.

Thats the pessimist coming out in me.
