Weeks End

I ended up putting in some good miles this week on top of a killer work schedule where I didn't get home much earlier then 7pm each night and 11pm on Thursday. It was a good week, I sold some houses, but I don't like that schedule at the expense of my family. Hopefully it will be more balanced from here out.

Today is Easter and after eating about 6000 calories my brother Dan got me out the door for a 4 mile run. I thought I was going to puke, but it was good to get the blood moving.

Wednesday Run

Somehow my longer run during the week have been taking place on Wednesday's. Tuesday's and Thursday's have been to busy and usually on Wednesday's I drop Carter at school and I go to a coffee shop and work until I have to pick him up. Last week I decided to run and enjoyed the free time some much I did the same this week. This week the weather was much easier to run in and I ran the same route along White Bear Lakes southeast boarder. I was a little sluggish the first couple miles going into the wind, but as soon as I was able to cut the wind I ran effortlessly.
