Carving time for a run

These Christmas preparations are wearing us down here. We were up every night this week till midnight...final exam for grad class Monday, making teacher gifts Tues, Wed & Thurs after my work holiday party...finally found time for a run today in the daylight. It was a run I did not know I would get to take, so I had a black bean burger earlier while last minute Christmas shopping with my husband.

Black bean burger is NOT a good pre-run meal. File that piece of knowledge away.

I took a few walk breaks, but was sure to run slower and longer...here's what I did.
R12/W2, R10/W4, R8/W3, R3/W1, R5

3.87 miles
50:13 (12:58/mile)

Taking it slow & easy till the stress test...it's the day after Christmas. I am starting to have the slightest concern that the sickness and stress of the last few weeks which has resulted in less milage could jeopardize my HM in April, but I will keep pushing that thought out of my head for the time being.

Wishing my fellow RBFers and Running Bloggers a blissful, healthful and peaceful holiday.
