Asked my husband to drop me off away from the house on his way to the store.  Forced me to run back home. :)

Spinning.  Sad to say goodbye to my regular crew.  Starting a new job Monday so my schedule won't allow an early morning spin.

Wanted to see if I could still run after not running for a week.  Wanted to include a hill since I'll be running hills in the Ragnar race.  Ran the first four miles out at a 9:38 pace then reset my watch.  I ran the other four miles back in at a 10:31 pace.  I purposely went easy on the way back in so I could ease back into my routine.  

Getting into a routine will be challenging this week.  

Looking forward to nap time now :)
