Mostly easy, sometimes hard.

9mi run at marathon pace 1:21.

Over at beginnertriathlete.com, the mantra regarding running is: run often.
Mostly easy, sometimes hard.
That pretty well describes this morning's run. The first 4.5mi was down hill. The return was uphill. Tried to be attentive to form and just trot along and wait for it to get hard. No problem.
Last night, our 2 year old cc came down with a stomach bug. She is throwing up often. I'm waiting for symptoms that I have it too. Nothing yet. Today was Ellie's 6th birthday party. She had a blast. I am glad I decided to skip the san antonio 13.1 race tomorrow. It made it easier to be helpful at the party and not concerned about registering, expo, etc.
Running on tired legs was a great idea. Gonna keep that up. No rest before the long runs.
