As much as I love running in this weather and don't look forward to going back to the cold, I'm ready to be done.  12 -14 hour work days, parties in the hotel halls until 2:00 am, and my family drove down to get some Disney time in this weekend, and I have a 3 year old that is up all night coughing.  I'm beat.   I have to come to work early just to get away from it all.

This mornings run called for a General Aerobic run with some 10 x 100's for speed, did my Downtown Disney loop out to the Bunny trail run, ran the trail 1 mile out and back and then coming back down Katella Ave. I used intersections as my sprints.  Nothing like oncoming traffic to dodge to keep those splits up.  Looking at my HR peaks there were about 9 intersections I sprinted across.  My legs are feeling a little worn.

Sometimes I'm a little jealous of my husband being able to leave and go to work. How would it be to sit in silence for a few hours? I miss that.

So what's the day time temp? I bet it's been nice not running in the freezing temps. icky!

In the case of my wife it's more than jealousy, its downright despise. I'd like to say I'd trade with her, but I wouldn't :)

Morning temps are about 45 - 50, daytime high 75 - 78.
