I MISSED A SCHEDULED RUN OVER THE WEEKEND!!!!!!!!!   AHHHHHGGG?!!!   Yes, that concerns me.  It was a 1 hour run and I forgot to get Becca to leave the boys gym ID's and therefore couldn't go to gym from the pool and it just messed up my whole planning.   I'm concerned about it, though I probably shouldn't be, but maybe I should be...crap.

I got an older neighborhood kid, Joey Paragone, to play video games with the boys the next morning so I could at least get in the 2 hour run scheduled...it didn't feel that hard, probably because I didn't do the 1 hour run, but I still didn't go very fast....still wondering if I should push to get in an hour run somewhere.  If Becca were to miss a scheduled run I would emphatically and without question tell her to just forget about it, 1 run doesn't make or break the training schedule or fitness, but when it's me things are different.   Anyway, about that 2 hour run:

• 0845
• 14.56 miles
• 8:19/mi. Pace
• 2:01:08 total time

I felt like I was going faster than that.

Saturday

• 0534

Amazingly humid, standing out in that regard from all other days in Mobile, AL nearly all of which many would consider extremely humid.  Seriously, I was amazed. 

Sunday

• 0545
• 14.03 miles
• 8:37/mi. pace

Still quite humid and based on wetness of attire post run one may think it was as humid as yesterday, but I didn't think so...guess I could have expected it a bit more today, but whatever, glad to be done with a high mileage weekend and looking forward to the next.
