| More GMP tonight. I'm distracted. My 91-year-old grandmother, the last grandparent I have left, is on the brink of death. I kinda thought this might happen after her sister died around Christmas; thought she might not have the strength to live much longer. And it appears that's the case. |

| Recovery run. Grandma has died. Funeral will be Saturday morning. I think it will work out where I can run, shower, change and get to Hot Springs for the funeral. And I think I need that run to help get me through a difficult day. I spent a lot of time with her; we had Sunday dinner with her seemingly three out of four weekends when I was a kid. |

| Decided to give the Friday-Saturday back to back runs another chance, getting up early for a fartlek run around the neighborhood. Then another Friday slam at work, then go to Hot Springs for visitation at the funeral home, then tomorrow's run and funeral. Yuck. |

| Showed up at the River Trail, turned on my Garmin, started running and never looked at the watch again. Spent the whole 10 miles thinking about Grandma, and all those Sunday dinners, and all the other family members I've lost. I'm lucky in that my parents are still alive and well; not every 47-year-old can say that, but I'm all out of grandparents now. The visitation was not easy last night. I know it's hard on my dad to finally lose his mom at age 69. And there's the family tension between the Merle/Brandy faction and Dad and Mom, with Robert on the fringes. Anyway, I just ran and remembered, and when I got back to the car, I'd averaged 9:00 on the dot. Now hit the showers and put on my suit and go to Bryant to join the family for the trip to Hot Springs. This will be Tyler's first funeral, and not sure how he'll handle it. |
