Randall Extra Plus

Well, back to a set-back(not in training).  My daughter was suspended yesterday for five days.  In some ways I can see progress, yet in other ways she struggles.  The tough thing is to do the right thing to help her , and yet at the same time consider everybody else.  It has been so tough seeing all my daughters making some poor choices and struggling in other ways.  Their dilemma also causes stress for everything else.  I am looking to the Lord for His guidance and intervention.  Kim is here with me at work today.

Now for the workout.  I was a little tired from sleeping on the couch.  Trying to be in a place so I can attend to my daughter, and at the same time allow my wife some rest.  I got out the door at 4:24 am doing 8.68 miles in 1:49:14 for a 12:35 minute per mile pace.  This has been my best effort with the garmin.  I have just picked up the pace to get back earlier--just because it makes me feel more comfortable.  I saw a runner on Randall--tempting to switch to running to pass him, but it is not worth the beat down knees.  The temp was a clear and balmy 23 degrees.  It will be awhile before the daylight intersects with my workout.  I heard dear shuffling through the woods on Woodlot.  have a blessed day!
