6 miles outside early this morning. 32 with 16 mph wind. What's up with the wind? I mean, seriously. It actually wasn't too bad, but is annoying. Decided to do 6 because I did 5 yesterday and I'd woken up early so I had some extra time.

What time will Russ wake up at today (Wednesday)? Will he have time for another 6, or will he hit the snooze and just do a cheeky little 5? Maybe he'll ignore the alarm and have a lie in and not run today.

It's all too much; I'm peeing myself with excitement...:)

Hahahaha. Yesterday was a long day: got up at 5 am, did 6 miles, left the house before 7 to rush to a 7:30 meeting, had a 4 hour meeting from 1-5 pm, went straight to another meeting, and then straight again to yet another meeting. Got home after 9 pm. Wednesday became a sleep in day. More early meetings on Thursday and Friday will mean more waking early to run. I hope you've cleaned up the mess of wetting yourself.
