This is becoming a trend for me. This summer has been very busy and I've had a really tough time getting my runs in. Yesterday was no different. I woke up in the morning and Melis had to go over to the hospital for a stress test for the baby (short story, everything is fine). At any rate, that took a majority of the morning and I wasn't able to get my run in.
Then, we have the "fence guys" coming in today, so I had to go out and make sure I pulled the fence out and got it all ready for a new fence to come in. I was right in thinking that pulling the fence out wouldn't be that big of a deal. But, unfortunately, there were 3-4 small tree stumps in the way that I had to dig out. That was a bear (and one of them still remains).
So.... after doing all that, I didn't have the energy for 13 miles. So, I decided I would do it today somehow. The plan right now is to split it up (6 over lunch and 7 tonight). We'll see if I'm able to pull it off.
I also got my six miler in on Saturday, that was the end to a good week.
Run recap- 6.0 miles, 56:37, 9:26

6 done... 7 to go. (said through tears)
Good luck on the seven. Nice improvisation!

I expect digging out the tree stumps was a good workout in itself...
You said it man, you said it. Now that it's behind me, it wasn't that bad. Funny how that works. Wouldn't want to make a habit of it though.
