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.

Total Distance

16.00

8:11 AP. 78 degrees, 20mph south wind, 71% humidity. I'm on call this weekend and have to carry my work phone, and can't stray far from my car, but I rarely get calls between 5:30am and 7:30 am, sooooo, I got up at 4:30, drank half a cup of coffee, and I was off running loops near my house. I awkwardly toted my palm pilot/work phone, headlamp, pen, paper, and water bottle. I should've ate something because I was running on fumes and felt dead-legged. I just told myself to run as slow as I needed and get it done. It's done. Phew.

Good miles! It's always nice to get it done early. If it was almost 80 at 4:30, it's shaping up to be a hoooooot day!

Good dedication and very nice pace, looks like you had similar heat to us this morning.

Way to transport the office with you for 16-miles! Long run complete, nice job. I hate that running-on-empty feeling too.
