6.16 miles~~Saturday run

After sleeping a little late (1.5-2 hours later than normal) and having a delicious omelet breakfast that Chris made me, I decided to run.  I did a few jobs around the house so my food would settle before running.  I know that I should not sleep later on the weekends, but I need more sleep than I am getting every night.  So that extra hour or two really makes me feel better.  I've realized that I am the type of person who needs about 8-10 hours a night, but I get only about 6-7 hours.  After several days, then I need to get a few hours more in order to function and be alert.

I took my inhaler and suited up.  I ate a couple of Clif energy squares, slathered on sunscreen and sunglasses, and headed out.  I wasn't sure how far I was going to run and decided to just run and see how I felt before turning around and heading home.  I did a little walking, mainly on the bigger hills, but kept pushing myself to run farther.  By the time I was home, I had logged 6 miles.  Not a bad day!
