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.

7:44 AP.  Paced my buddy Carlos through his last 20 miler before New York.  We ran the first 15 7:50ish pace then dropped into the 7:20s and 7:30s for the closing 5.  Great run.  Good to catch up with Carlos and good to see him running so well and fixing to PR bigtime.
