Running Accomplishments:

Kinda consistently running since 07 

Short-Term Running Goals:

5k in 18:00; 10k in 40:00

Long-Term Running Goals:

I would like to be able to keep up with my daughter.  The one who runs xc, not the one who's going to change the world through dance.  Although I would like to be able to dance also, so I change that to me wanting to be able to keep up with both my daughters.

Personal:

I have two gorgeous daughters; two good-looking cats and two dogs with great personalities.

Around an 11 minute pace.  Stopped to walk when my ankle felt weird.

10:30-something pace.

0330; 75 F; 20% humidity; 11 mph winds; clear

Interviewed for a stateside job today with the Forestry service.  The interview was at 2:15 am my time and was over by 3.  I'll find out if they want to go forward in 2-4 weeks. 

I couldn't sleep afterward, so I finished packing for my trip to Basrah and went for a run.

I was hoping to see the sunrise, but there was too much haze on the horizon.  I really like running at that temperature, but I'm probably not going to get up early again.  Unless I get a second interview.

Weekly assessment compared to last week

Pullups:  up 3 (3 less than PR)

Situps: up 8 (7 away from my goal, 9 away from my PR) 

Pushups: up 15 (quit with 9 seconds left, 20 less than PR)

Honestly considered working out, but focused on resting.
