Ah, it was so tempting to sleep in this morning.  No school, I could have run later.  But, I was a good girl and got up at 4:45 a.m. to go running at the track.  

On the up side, it was shorts weather this morning.  Sure beat the cold of Saturday!  We started our splits and they started good, but the second half was a bit slow for me:

1600  - 7:31

1200 - 5:48

800 - 3:48

1600 - 7:52

1200 - 5:57

800 - 3:48

Glad to see at least my 800's were consistent!  We watched the marathon Olympic trials on Saturday, and to see the times those winners posted - incredible!  I'm finishing an 800 when they are almost done with a mile!  It is just mind boggling to me to think of how fast they are going.  

Anyway, came home, showered, and climbed back in bed :)  Got to sleep for another couple of hours.  The nice thing was, by the time I really got up this morning, the exercise and showering were already done for the day :)  Made for a nice morning.
