Today's schedule called for 7 miles... my personal life called for something else...
My wonderful husband, after being out of town Tuesday night, having plans for Thursday night and out of town again for the weekend, was kind enough to allow me the luxury of running right after work during his one evening home. This, I thought, would work out perfectly and allow me to run outside at least once during this unseasonably gorgeous week. At least that was how I felt about it before I left the house. Almost immediately after my departure it occurred to me that, while it may be my only evening to run outdoors, it is also my only evening to spend time with my husband. This fact instantly took priority and I completely lost the desire to run. In an attempt to at least keep up with my miles for the week, I squeezed in 3 miles before heading home. At this point, running 7 miles on the treadmill tomorrow seems far better than giving up my small window for quality family time tonight. Of course, we'll see how I feel about those 7 miles when tomorrow comes...
