Burt, thanks for commenting yesterday.  I really need to get in the habit of blogging.  Since I last blogged, I had 1-2 good weeks and one really bad week last week.  I need to at least get an estimate for miles for my shoes.

Ran to my bill's with the kids on bikes. Wanted to run home. As we headed out, the sky opened up, so we hitched a ride home.

A good p.m. 3 miles.  Went out right before dusk, and it was nice out.  Maybe 70s.  I lost my garmin charger a while ago, and haven't put any real effort into finding it.  Sometimes I enjoy running without it, sometimes not. Today was one where I didn't mind, though I'm sure my pace was fairly slow.

I ran in the dark.  For part of the time a guy on a bike was following me.  It's possible that he and I were just on the same path coincidentally, but it was a little creepy, since he had ample opportunity to pass me.  I was totally primed to fight. 

Then I was about a quarter mile from home, really wanted to add on some so I could get to 3 instead of 2.5, but not with some creep following me.  So I sneaked a peek behind me only to discover he wasn't behind me anymore.  So he probably wasn't behind me for as long as I thought he was. 

I got my 3 after all.

This was probably not quite 4, but I know yesterday was more than 2 and I feel comfortable rounding slightly up. I walked a bit in little spots of shade. I don't run well in the heat and sun.

This is the first week in a while that I've run 6 days. I would attribute it to actually blogging. I am afraid that if I fall off of blogging I will not be on my normal workouts. There is something satisfying about the workout calendar on this blog that I didn't find when I was using the Beach Body app at the arm twisting of an acquaintance.
