3 in the cold rain. I picked up the pace so my out of shape butt was feeling it. Honestly I'm embarrassed that this pace was comfortably hard. It's been a long time since I've gone below 9:00 pace as sad as that is. But I feel accomplished. Got that familiar feeling in my lungs that lets me know I worked hard. 

Just for reference, my mile splits were 8:37, 8:08, 8:27. So nothing to shout about but something that was satisfying for me after having gotten into the 9:20 pace gig.

I'm making it a goal to run every day this week.

Well the whole let's run every day this week really didn't pan out... I guess I just got busy with other things. I worked late one night, then another I decided to go hang out with some friends, another I went to a haunted house, and the rest... idk. I need to be better about setting time aside for running.

Well I guess another day I was helping my parents move stuff out of their basement so they could remodel. A couple of boxes were my old personal stuff. I went through it today. Old journals, scrapbooks, pictures, running medals, and letters from people close to me. I was laughing because I found a story I'd written for my sister Hattie and it was so random, then deeply touched when I found a letter from my old YW President. She passed in February 2019. She took in my brother when he became too difficult to live at home (he has anger issues and mental illnesses, it's hard to explain why that was so necessary but it was for the best). So finding that letter was sweet but also hard. I miss her.
