Heading out of town to PA for some work early tomorrow so I thought I would start me day off with some light miles since last week was a bummer for running. Nice and early and a fair 65 to run :)

In PA, catching up with the hotel wifi. So Monday morning, my 4:30am run before I hit the road got snuffed out. I got up and boom... hail.... boom lightning... ummm ok so I hit the shower and the road and managed to get 6 tm miles in last night. Today up early and did 5am miles on the tm with some sub 6 striders. Good day of audits, then to Youngstown. Ran outside here with no tm available, 6 base this evening.

Work up a little late (5am) and had a decent drive this morning, so I went out for a quick mile. I caught a little time before dinner for a short 5. Legs just did not feel right today, not really sure why.

Driving yesterday, no running- with work I needed a day off anyway. Today, 60's, misty rain in the am- felt good. AM 6.65  miles. PM- 6.3 miles, a bit brisker pace, sometimes ya just gotta move faster :)

Felt decent today, probably because I was able to get out early in the nice 58 degree morning air. One can get used to that. I still have that lingering back issue, but hope it continues to get better as it makes it a literal pain just getting shoes and socks on. Nice relaxed 16, avg 8:15 pace.

The oldest has some friends coming over so we can have some fun with animated movies... today is Megamind. We are strange, but we love laughing at those things.
