I did not run yesterday. I drove back from Springfield, fell asleep at 5, and didn't wake up till 10. I then fell asleep for the night. Bummer.

My run today was good, but quick because people were coming over. One mile warmup, three miles starting at 8:30 pace, increasing the pace every two minutes up until 7.6 pace, then back down. The last mile cool down ended a nice run for the day.

Three easy miles on the treadmill. It is treadmill, treadmill, treadmill for the foreseeable future.

Started off crabby. Determined that I was only going to do two just to put something on the calendar. Then I changed my mind as I got less crabby. Snow day tomorrow, maybe. I'm hoping no, but the decision will be made in the morning.

Snow day, so more miles than usual. I treadmilled it. Stopped at 7 miles, then decided one more was in order. I played with the pace a bit, but only pushed the pace in the last tenth of a mile.

Sick Char Char the last two days. Not doctor sick, but clingy and pitiful sick. We all cuddled in bed last night to watch The Little Mermaid. Her fever kept me warm.

I stayed home most of the day with her, though I was able to go in to work for a couple of hours to teach my Algebra class and take care of a couple little things. My run was later. It was interrupted in the beginning by the phone, and then before Chuck took the boys out to the KCs, I told him to bring Charlotte up and have her sit on the couch while I finished. She had my phone and I thought there was a slim possibility that would distract her. But it didn't. So I finished a half mile as fast as I could and called it a day. One more mile would have been nice, but 5 was all right.

I don't think I've run outside in 3 weeks. I'm going stir crazy.

More treadmill while the boys went to Eli's basketball game. They all came home when I wasn't quite finished and rushed m off so that we could get out of the house and do something as a family.
