Easy run.

5:45 am, 51° F, 72% humidity, wind 4 SSW, dark.

I finally managed to drag myself out the door, but only for a short run. I just have way too many things to do in the morning. I need to try to get more things done the night before, like helping my daughter with her homework and making my husband's lunch.

I talked to my manager at work yesterday and I told him that the increased workload is one of the reasons that I've cut way back on my running. He said that I should run because he doesn't want to be responsible for my stopping running. At least he's supportive.

AP: 9:27. Splits: 9:39, 9:24, 9:19.

Easy run.

6:09 am, 59° F, 45% humidity, wind 4 SSE.

I started having a scratchy throat yesterday afternoon and felt lousy all last evening. I still feel lousy this morning. But it's Friday, so I had to go run with Lindsay. I think it's allergies, not a cold. But by the end of my run, my head was all full of snot.

I need to get out the door by 6:05 (6:04 is even better) when I'm going to meet Lindsay. But I was late today. So I ran my first mile faster than I usually run a first mile, but it wasn't enough. I was still a few minutes late. But she was still waiting for me. It helps that she can wait in her house.

My kids are off school today so my morning isn't quite as rushed as usual. I still had to make my husband's lunch when I finished my run. At least I washed my hands this time before I made his sandwich. (His sandwich might have been a little salty yesterday.)

AP: 9:52. Splits: 9:04, 9:34, 10:22, 10:13, 10:11, 9:50.
