Slow miles	Fast miles	Total Distance
5.40	0.00	5.40

These were slow miles indeed. I missed my swim lessons run because I had to go in to school in the morning, and since we had plans tonight, I ran at about 2:15. It was sunny, but surprisingly not too terrible. Temps were in the high 70s/low 80s, and I stuck to the shade and carried water. I also went a little longer than I have been lately. Not sure why. Just sorta felt like it.

I got one of my yesterday problems solved. My family is not going to Michigan after all, so I am running in the 5K tomorrow and then leaving for Chicago on Saturday. I might do a 5K on Sunday, but only if my brother runs. I don't think I'll race this one either.

Then this evening, we went to a gathering at the new principal's house. My husband is the oldest of all the administrators, which surprised me a little. Two of the assistants are younger than me.

It is strange when all the principals are 40 or under. I'm with you, April. I'm fairly certain all of the principals I had were solidly grey.
