Total Distance
17.05

6.05 miles in the morning.

11 miles in the evening.

I woke up and was really tired.  I got moving along and felt fine after about the first mile.  I didn't push it at all this morning.  I had a little run in with a car.  I crossed the street in plenty of time and they thought I was "cutting" them off.  He honked at me and proceeded to go on his run.  He should know that runners own the roads!  Also, when I got back to the house the door was locked.  I had to punch out a screen and jump through the small window to get in.  I'm glad no one called the cops for someone breaking and entering!  It is Ogden.  I did the run at a 7:18/mile pace.  It was quite the morning to say the least.  I came home and took an hour and a half power nap.  It sure helped.  I went out on the same route as last night but took it a touch slower.  I did the entire run at 6:30/mile pace.  It was not to bad of a push.

Keep up those solid miles. How is school going. Make sure you get plenty of rest. School still wipes me out - it is very demanding to be on your feet running around with 30 misfits all day long.

Days like this make you wonder why!

To make things more interesting, I kept dreaming about you getting lost on the TOU 1/2 course and wondering what time exactly you would have gotten, low 1:08, middle 1:08, high 1:08, or low 1:09.

Sasha, should we be worried that you are dreaming about Logan? Does your wife know about this?
