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.

still feeling run down ugh.  I felt like this a few years ago when my ferritin was low.  starting the iron supplements and seriously trying to pack nutrition into my diet.

1 mile warm up.  6 x 800 5:52 pace.  cooldown.  treddy--I just didn't have the heart for the heat today.  did some core in the weight room afterward

Tired after work, haven't even slept since my last run!  Drove to the start to fnish meetup or I would've drove home and gone to bed.  16 was my minimum in my head and that's what I did--ran the first 7 with Winston and Matt--great company!
