Personal:

I was a single mom.  Two times over.  We all survived, despite the fact that I make atrocious decisions.  Then, I met a man I didn't deserve.  And he loves me so much.  And I love him. We lived in sin and bought a house for two years then hired a judge and officially got married(to our great delight and also the delight of our mothers), then a month later he was diagnosed with cancer.  Well we survived all that and he's 100% fine now.  But, we're really out of shape and really busy with kids and jobs and running just isn't my priority and there's so many other layers to all of it, but I'm running anyway.  This is my failure blog now.  Just to log that one run a week if I snag it.  
Somehow that matters and I want that run recorded.

5 a.m. 6.2 at 8:00 AP.  Then off to a rather bad day at work.

p.m. 5.2 at 7:16 AP.  I meant to take this one easier but that is hard to do when I am chasing my kids on bikes or they are chasing me.  Happily, I had enough wind at this pace to yell at my kids throughout to  keep them in line.  I should use them as pacers for a tempo run.

Sounds like a tough assignment on that second run, but a great pace.
