after3 days off  feel like a complete slug - I hate this feeling

I dragged my tubby body around town for 8.7 @7:09 ave pace.  Hurrah for the thunderstorm that blew in.  I managed to avoid the lightning but got the rain in the 2nd half of the run.  Nice run.

Practiced getting the kids ready for school.  Then I got out for a quicky before Chrys left for work. 

4.2 @  6:51 ave pace

PM -6 total

2x800 2:35 and 2:38

4x400 1:18, 1:18, 1:18, 1:19

Plus warmups cooldowns and jogs between intervals.  Wanted to do 4 or 5 x800.  I blasted the first 800, 7 sec faster than I wanted.  The 2nd was only a little slower.  By then I was baked and took it down to some 400's.  I was totally wiped out by the end.  Disappointed that I had to bail on my plan, but it just wasn't going to happen.
