Not a great run. I started slow and was slow all the way through. Just couldn't get moving, probably because in my haste to get out the door so I could be back by the time the rest of the fam got back from breakfast, I didn't eat breakfast. And then once I realized that, I coulcn't stop thinking about how hungry I was.

I never really had a firm idea of how far this run was supposed to be. I vascillated between 6 and 10 for a while before finally settling on 8. And then when I got close to my house and I was already over 8, I added a couple blocks so that I didn't have to end on a weird number.

I hate hungry runs! They really feel terrible...so you did some good suffer-running - nice job!
