I think I'm just going to abandon posting fast miles. I had a pretty good workout, probably the best that I've had in about a month. I've been trying to get pregnant, but we will not be trying this month because having a baby in May doesn't work really well for me since I teach seniors. I don't know if that's a stupid reason or not, but oh well. So anyway, after thinking up until I got my period the last two months that I was pregnant, I was being cautious. This month I won't be as much. So I warmed up for 20 minutes, then did 6 x 2 min fast with the same in recovery. It was late when I started, so it was starting to get dark and it was much cooler than it had been during the day (the first couple 90+ days we've had in about 6 weeks). The fast portions felt good. Then I stopped to talk to a cousin who was walking by my ex-SIL's house, which is where the kids were. Her son is getting close to finishing his last chemo treatment for leukemia, is getting ready to start 5th grade and might actually get to go school most of the time (last year his attendance was understandably spotty because of all his treatments). Their family has been through so much, but now things are going well! Then I drank some water and convinced my cranky 4 year old to let me run 1 more mile. But I did 2 instead. Am I horrible or what?
