5:20 I slept in a bit. Just did not want to wake up to the elliptical today. I did weights for my vain arms and abs first b/c I didn't want an excuse to skip it. So instead I skipped the last mile on the ellip.

So the next two weekends I"m having a tough time trying to figure out when I"m going to fit in my long run. This weekend that goodness is my light week so it is only a 10 miler. I may do it tomorrow night OR at 5 am on Saturday (usually I wait a bit). The SO is on midnights Fri and Satur and then I have a friend coming over on Saturday.

Next weekend we are giong to Evansville for a bowling tournament. The SO seems uneasy about me running down there. Soooo I may have to do my long run 16 miles when i get home sunday....YUCK!...I"m hoping that the hotel has a treadmill...maybe I can get in my usual sunday shorter run in on saturday...or maybe i could do it friday...who knew this would be sooo difficult!

How come life just doesn't get out of the way and let you run as much as you want? Just kidding. Life does get in the way sometimes. But often life is more important.

Well, running is easier to fit in that some things. You just need your shoes. Is Evansville a scary place to run? Can you run 4 mile loops and check in with him each loop?

Well either way it looks like i will either skip it or move the run around...we shall see what life holds!

Stupid life getting in the way! But this is important to him so I have to be there for him!

He thought I was trying to run a race. I"m like oooh nooo!
