I waited for about an hour for the watch to charge this morning.  I didn't want to do 800s with out it.  My window of time and motivation started to taper.  Mark and I ended up running an easy 5-ish around Franklin Cemetary Loop.  "Better 'N Nutting."  PA - 9:03.  Nice of Mark to go with me.

Mark, Stephen and I woke up at 5am to put the flags out in the neighborhood.  I wanted to run 8 but ended up only doing an 6 because I still need to sew David's uniform before the flag ceremony this morning.  It's only 7am and I've already packed in a lot these last couple of hours.    The way the sun hit the mist coming off the lake this morning was beautiful!

Happy Independence Day!

I had to get out of the house.  Everyone was rotting!  It was hot mid-afternoon around 2pm.  D & K were on bikes and Anton and I jogged.  We stopped a lot.  The 5 miles took over 1 hour and 15 minutes with all the stops and waiting etc.  Better 'N Nuttin!

Michelle K. is in town from Vegas and texted me to run!  Yeah!  I only slept for 4 hours and normally I would just sleep in but knowing I'm meeting someone to run totally motivates me even if I have to drive a total of 40 minutes to run for 40 minutes!

The air was thick!  Felt like I was running in a jungle.  Need to get back into it.  I was talking/out-of-breath the entire time.  

Pace Ave- 8:17
