Last week wasn't a great one for running; I was sick and the kids were sick, which meant there wasn't much spare time. I ran 3 on Wednesday and 3 on Friday, and that was all I squeezed in before poor miserable Lukey would wake up inconsolable (speak of the devil! 10:36 pm and he just started crying--last night he was crying from 10-midnight and then up again at 6:30). And as I mentioned, I was sick and a total wreck. I spent a lot more time crying last week than running.
5 miles yesterday; stopped at 3 for water and then at 4 to get Luke--he sat on my bed while I ran the last mile. Average pace for that run was 8:41.
Another 5 today--SO exhausted. Started running really late after a long day with sick kids (and I'm still coughing a lot, which seems to be exacerbated by running. I really hope this goes away soon, since when I was coughing a ton last week it was pulling on the scar from my hernia surgery. Not fun at all). Stopped at 2 miles and at 3.6 miles for water and just trying to give myself a pep talk to keep going--my knee was aching and my back was aching on the opposite side--my legs felt like lead. So, so, so tired! 8:50/avg pace today.
