This was just a steady long run.  Avg. pace 9:08.  My heart really wasn't in it.  I just wanted to be done.

This has been a tiring week.  I was working on a big paper and a project, grading research paper, holding my student teacher's hand, dreading class this weekend.  But now I'm done with one class for the semester, I'm almost done with my research papers, and spring break is 2 weeks away.  I think the rest of the year is downhill from here.  Can you believe there are only about 9 weeks left of the school year?

Great job running even though your heart wasn't in it. I am glad that you are on the downhill end for the school year. That is always a good feeling!

wow way to run a half-marathon without feeling like running!

Good job cranking out that steady long run. I know what you mean about your heart not being in it. I've felt like that a lot lately.

Here's to coasting downhill to the end of the school year!

You either start early or have a short year! And your life is soooo busy!

We started school in the middle of August (I think late teens). We get out before Memorial Day.

I prefer it that way.

I like it that way too!
